Peter Buckley For Oregon State Representative oregon s k12 education was traditionally funded through local property taxes. School boards throughout oregon responded to local input and created programs http://www.peterbuckley.org/educationK12.php
Extractions: Do It Now! The Issues Oregon's K-12 education was traditionally funded through local property taxes. School boards throughout Oregon responded to local input and created programs that were then supported by school district elections. Although this system worked well for many districts which had voter support and a tax base that supported adequate funding, there were many districts that were perpetually challenged to adequately fund local schools. In 1991, Oregon voters passed Measure 5 which both capped local property taxes school districts could raise, and transferred the funding authority to the legislature's general fund. Measure 5 held the promise of lower property taxes and equalization of education opportunity for all Oregon children. Funds were distributed to schools on a per-student basis and based on a complex formula. But the consequence of transferring funding from local jurisdictions to a statewide governing body was that K-12 supporters now had to lobby for adequate funding against the other services provided for in the state budget. All went fairly smoothly as long as Oregon's economy was thriving and increases in income taxes collected covered increases in operating costs for schools, social services and public safety. The delayed reaction to Measure 5 funding shifts came when the Oregon economy went into decline, and then recession, for four consecutive years.

Vote for The Calculator! Chuck Sheketoff The Governor's response to the Speaker's education budget plan - and the comments from the political peanut gallery - got me thinking: What's with the proposals for budgeting by simple formulas? Don't we elect folks to review and prioritize government programs and services and respond to emerging needs and opportunities? Assume for a moment that the amount allocated in the budget for the Portland police and fire disability payments was set according to a mathematical formula like the education proposals getting attention in Salem. Would people be happy if the budget was within that limit, even with the recently exposed problems continuing? Of course they wouldn't.
