What is ESSA?

Two Primary Structures

ESSA requires schools to report per pupil spending on an individual school and student basis.

Misinterpreting the Per Pupil Costs

As we look at schools identified as not meeting the needs of particular subgroups, we want to be careful about assuming a causal relationship between per pupil spending and achievement.
