School budgets have seen significant increases in recent years, yet teacher salaries have not kept pace, raising questions about where the additional funding is being allocated. A new Q&A explores how rising costs for student services, administrative expenses, and facility upgrades may be absorbing much of the extra revenue meant for education. Critics argue that while schools receive more money, educators—who form the core of the classroom—are not seeing proportional wage growth. The discussion highlights broader challenges in equitable education funding and the need for transparency in how school districts prioritize spending.
