Ravenswood School District Funding Compared to Other Local School Districts

One thing I have consistently heard about our local schools in East Palo Alto is that our schools do not have the same level of funding as other regional school districts. This, it turns out, is absolutely true. Ravenswood School District receives considerably more funding per student than nearby Menlo Park and Los Lomitas School Districts.

Funding for Ravenswood School District Per Student: $36,908

Funding for Menlo Park School District Per Student: $24,998

Funding for Las Lomitas School District Per Student: $32,240

State of California Average per Student: $18,141

Here is a good visualization of the performance to funding results for Ravenswood vis-a-vis Hillview and La Entrada.
