Policy Perspectives: School Facilities - Declining Conditions, Declining Opportunities

Studies published in 1995 and 1996 by the U.S. General Accounting Office determined that inadequate school facilities were a widespread problem - fully one-third of America's schools needed extensive repairs or replacement. While other studies have linked low academic performance to inadequate school facilities, schools whose repair needs are greatest tend to be in districts with inadequate resources for addressing facilities problems. This policy summary answers fundamental questions about the condition and funding of America's public school facilities, and suggests approaches that policymakers and administrators should consider.
