CARROLLTON: TEN YEARS IN THE LEDGER
Numerous readers have asked me to take a look at Carrollton Public Schools.
Well, dearest readers... your Lady has arrived. 🪶
Over the last decade, enrollment remained remarkably steady, down just 1.96%.
Meanwhile:
Revenue per pupil: +62.33%
Instruction per pupil: +69.55%
Instructional support: +71.06%

Operations & maintenance: +93.64%
And average teacher salary?
$55,044 → $62,424, up just 13.41%, compared with 35.83% inflation.
The number getting the biggest circle in my ledger, though?
Operations & maintenance, up 93.64% per pupil. 👀
That doesn't tell us why.
It tells us where to look next. 🪶
With receipts & respect. 👑
