California had below average (for US states) school funding per student until recently: https://edsource.org/2026/california-education-funding-rise/...

At times, it was ranked second-worst.

I would argue that with California's high cost of living, "average" funding in California is still low relatively speaking.



True, but I was responding to a comment blaming the children for their under-performance. The funding gap isn't somehow due to those kids not wanting to learn, problems at home, etc.


I am agreeing with you - the funding gap is one of the causes for under-performance.
