Context for those hearing about this for the first time:
Minneapolis Public Schools receive only 78% of adequate funding.
St. Paul – 77%
Columbia Heights – 72%
St. Cloud – 66%
but
Wayzata – 230%
Orono – 286%
Minnetonka – 318%
This is MN state policy, not just local politics.
And oh, HUGE shocker…
Mpls district:
- 61% white residents
- 41% white public school students
Minnetonka district:
- 90% white residents
- 80% white public school students
State policy.
