| Abstract | Due to current and projected state budgetary constraints, California schools are forced to allocate resources even more effectively in order to meet state mandated student achievement targets, in accordance with NCLB. The need to effectively educate such a diverse student population with limited resources calls for educational adequacy measures to effectively allocate resources to support student achievement growth. Therefore, determining and planning for effective resource allocation strategies are vital to the success of K-12 schools across the U.S.; This study examines the resource allocation strategies of improving Southern California high schools in comparison to the Evidence-Based Model. The investigator will use a mixed methods research approach, where both quantitative and qualitative methods will be used to collect data for the development of case studies of schools that have demonstrated high student achievement despite serving significant numbers of socioeconomically-disadvantaged students. The efforts made by the sample schools to improve student achievement will be compared to the Evidence-Based Model for costing out an education in which essentially all students attain academic proficiency. The collection of multiple types of data will provide a means for district and school administrators to link instructional vision/strategies and effective resources allocation practices to improving student performance. |
