Restructuring Resources for High-Performing Schools: A Primer for State Policy Makers

This guide from Education Resource Strategies discusses ways that resources may be restructured to increase school and student outcomes. The author examines the effects of current resource allocations within schools and provides recommendations that include restructuring how schools organize personnel and time, how districts and schools spend special education dollars, how districts allocate resources to schools and students, and what information districts gather on resources and spending. This resource may be especially relevant to state and district policy makers looking at restructuring resources to improve educational outcomes.
