Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether it is requests for bricks and mortar or more operating money, each election type and context is unique with no guarantee that a set of campaign strategies_successful in one district_will not fail in another community. If successful campaigns were not such a delicate balance of science and art, the key to success would have long since been discovered, resulting in significantly more school districts winning at the ballot box. As members of the baby-boom generation collectively watch their last child receive a diploma from our nation's public schools, passing school finance elections is going to be even more difficult, promising tougher battles with the electorate and tighter margins between success and failure. School Finance Elections represents a marriage of research and successful practice, presenting a comprehensive planning model for school leaders preparing for and conducting school finance elections. Information presented emphasizes systems and strategies rather than specific campaign tactics. Avoiding a myopic focus on tactics allows school leaders to elevate their thinking to a more comprehensive and long-range vision of election planning. Each of the chapters elaborates on one of the ten elements in the authors' comprehensive planning model. Use of this model has reaped success in all types of school districts from New Jersey to California, and the authors aim to bring readers success at the ballot box as well. This second edition builds on the first with expanded sections about the attitudes of voters whose children have grown and graduated, research into the nature of organized opposition, and new material highlighting the Internet in campaigns. The authors provide school leaders with important resources to guide their planning and execution of school finance referenda.

Download or read book Socioeconomic, Attitudinal and Neighborhood Variables as Predictors of Voting Behavior in Local School Financial Elections written by David G. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problem . This study addresses the willingness of citizens of a rural/suburban school district in the northern Kansas City metropolitan area to provide the financial support necessary to foster a quality education for all students. The school district presented one school bond proposal and four school levy proposals to the citizens of the district for facility improvements, salary increases, and technology advancements during the period of November, 1996 to August, 1997. The November bond proposal was successful. All four levy issues were defeated. The purposes of this study were to identify predictive characteristics of (1) registered voters who voted or did not vote in selected school financial elections between November, 1996 and August, 1997, (2) registered voters who voted "yes" and those who voted "no" in these selected financial proposals, and (3) to analyze the relationship between socioeconomic and attitudinal variables concerning the voters and non-voters in these school financial elections. Another purpose of the study was to validate the evolving theory of voter behavior which posits that voter participation in school financial elections and favorable and unfavorable voter responses to the financial proposals can be attributed to socioeconomic characteristics, attitudinal dispositions, a neighborhood effect, or some combination of these factors. Method . Registered voters in the Excelsior Springs School District No. 40 (Missouri) were the selected population for this study. The statistical sample for the study consisted of all the registered voters who voted in the November 5, 1996, bond and levy elections, and 25% of the non-voters residing in each of the nine election precincts of the school district at that time. The survey instrument used in the study contained 36 socioeconomic and attitudinal items. Chi-square tests for independence and discriminant function analysis were applied to the data collected on the variables in the survey instrument. Results . Certain socioeconomic and attitudinal variables demonstrated high overall predictive power in voting behavior of selected school financial elections. When considering citizens who voted and citizens who did not vote the only variable that was of high predictive power was MATE Factor III--Administrative and Program Effectiveness. The predictor power variables increased when investigating the "yes" or "no" responses of voters in the selected financial elections of the study. Variables of high predictive power were home ownership, MATE Factor I--Teacher-Related Issues, and MATE Factor II--Organizational Efficiency. Significant among the findings was the conceptual and comparison studies from almost three decades of prior research, and the present study verifying that socioeconomic and attitudinal variables are important in determining if citizens will vote and how they will vote in school financial elections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economics can be a lens for understanding the behavior of schools, districts, states, and nations in meeting education needs of their populaces, as well as for understanding the individual decisions made by administrators, teachers, and students. Insights from economics help decision makers at the state level understand how to raise and distribute funds for public schools in an equitable manner for both schools and taxpayers. Economics also can assist researchers in analyzing effects of school spending and teacher compensation on student outcomes. And economics can provide important insights into public debates on issues such as whether to offer vouchers for subsidizing student attendance at private schools.
