Money for Schools

The lack of money in schools has really been bothering me lately! In middle school I went to a school that had a really low budget. The school was in a rural area with a small amount of students. The school could only afford to pay teachers a certain (small) amount and therefore the school did not necessarily attract the best teachers and the students were not getting the best possible education. I think this is a terrible vicious cycle and not fair to the students that must attend that school. 

I assume that the state would give the school more money if the students scored better on tests, but I think it is kind of hard to improve scores if you don't improve teachers. The school also lacks in the proper technology needed for the kind of education it takes to succeed in society today. Most students from this school are not accepted into a four year university right after graduation and some do not attend college at all. 

I suppose the government is "trying" to improve education spending, but I somehow doubt this school will ever reap the benefits. Education is too important not to take note of this issue.
