Education spending skyrockets year after year, but student achievement stays stagnant

Washington Examiner - Presented with this dismal national picture, many pundits and elected officials protest that their own states have done better.

The trouble is, there's been no way to verify their claims. State-level test score averages don't reach back that far, or, as with the SAT, they aren't taken by a representative sample of all students.

The average state has seen a three-percent decline in math and verbal test scores, and a 120-percent increase in real spending per pupil.
