At 88% white, the remaining 12% of students are majority Hispanic at 7%. These disparities are mirrored in graduation rates of demographics with a state average graduation rate of 88.4%, white students graduating at a rate of almost 90% but around only three-quarters of black students graduating secondary school. While high proficiency and basic knowledge percentages bolster New Hampshire\u2019s above-average graduation and success rates, it is clear that a high proportion of privileged students overshadows unassisted underprivileged individuals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students from difficult and underprivileged backgrounds graduate at an alarmingly lower rate than the state average. Economically disadvantaged students see a graduation rate of 77% with a drop off to 64% for homeless students. Students with limited English only graduate at a rate of 65% while students with disabilities see a rate of 72%. Most shockingly, students in foster care graduate at only a rate of 39%, less than half that of the national average. While New Hampshire may serve its students who need minimal extra help well, the New Hampshire Public Education System fails to give the assistance its disadvantaged students need and deserve to close these disparities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In compliance with the Every Student Succeeds Act, New Hampshire\u2019s attempts to raise graduation rates and proficiency are seen in the evaluation of school systems&#8217; ability to teach to tests and retain students. While attention to lower graduation rates of schools sees overlaps with lower graduation rates of student demographics, this approach blames larger school systems and does not appropriately analyze the needs of individual students and communities. Blanket requirements encourage blanket solutions which only perpetuate social and economic inequities in students\u2019 education.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>New Hampshire Public School Funding<\/h4>\n<p><em>(Albertson-Grove 2022; Gibson 2022)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While New Hampshire spends more than the national average per student at a statewide average of $17,197, the discrepancy between per-pupil expenditures by district is alarming. With a high average of $57,058 and a low of $8,590, spending is drastically affected by the district. The state average is skewed toward a larger average by a small collection of higher-paying and better-funded schools while a large proportion of students are forced to receive education at a value that is a mere fraction of their peers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A large part of this inequity is a result of New Hampshire receiving very little federal funding, with two-thirds of individual districts&#8217; funding coming from property taxes. While New Hampshire has several wealthier metropolitan and urban areas, a majority of the state is rural and lower-income. With a large population of rural lower-income families, high taxes on valuable property are not a luxury for municipalities.\u00a0 Cities like Portsmouth see much higher property taxes and higher land value than cities like Manchester and therefore receive drastically larger budgets for each school year. With minimal State and even smaller Federal Funding, towns and districts are forced to fund their schools. Some can with high taxes and wealthy taxpayers, but others cannot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A lack of funding results in struggling schools and not infrequent drastic action. Recently, Croydon Public Schools cut their annual budget in half going from $1.7 million to a mere $800,000 in March. Conservative voters saw it as a win for low tax promises and minimal government intervention, but the choice leaves children in schools that are forced to cut staff, reduce extra programming and reshape their skeletal curriculum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While efforts to reverse this drastic cut are well underway, the intervention has forced families to consider private or alternative schools for their children if they hope for true quality education. New Hampshire is but another example of the political battle over school choice and the detriment it can have for individual communities. Education funding is further placed on individual districts. For those that can afford to provide quality education, their communities are further supported for their success and resources, but for those that can not, their schools are forced to operate on smaller and smaller budgets as those that can afford to, find alternate options for their children.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<h5>Bibliography<\/h5>\n<p>Albertson-Grove, Josie. 2022. \u201cHow We Pay for Schools in New Hampshire, and Why It Costs so Much.\u201d New Hampshire Union Leader.
