Something must have changed in how measure the effectiveness of our investment in public education. Prior to the Serrano v Priest decision and Prop 13, California was among the top states in investing in public education.

Now as we disinvest in public education and lose our competitive advantage there is no correlation between the investment made and the results received. Perhaps our focus on short term measurements like NAEP scores are the wrong measurements.
