| NOTE: How to read this table: Using Arizona (under regular school districts) as an example, if all regular school districts were listed by size of total current expenditures per pupil, the district at the midpoint (median) would have total current expenditures per pupil of $7,589. Only regular school districts matching the Common Core of Data (CCD) "Local Education Agency Universe Survey" and with student membership greater than zero were used in creating the national and state figures; 92.1 percent of school districts met this criterion. Independent charter school districts with revenues greater than zero and expenditures greater than zero were included in the charter school analysis; 96.8 percent of charter school districts met this criterion. Only the 19 states that have reported independent charter school district data are included in this table. | |||||||
