The state's school system falls short according to almost every objective measurement student achievement, funding, teacher qualifications and school facilities, according to a new RAND Corporation analysis. The study funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation chronicles how the state's K-12 school system has fallen from its status as a national leader 30 years ago to its current ranking near the bottom in nearly every objective category. But there were some upsides, according to RAND researchers. These included significant improvement in student math achievement in recent years and funding increases for school construction and repair.
