In 2006-07, Ladysmith-Hawkins School District spent $6,484/student for
total instruction, a figure that was +$103/student or +1.6% greater than the
total instructional expenditures in the average of all State of Wisconsin
school districts in that year ($6,381/student).
The Project Consultants concluded that Ladysmith-Hawkins School District
has marginally larger total instructional expenditures/student than the
average of all State of Wisconsin school districts, and the breadth of
disparity between the school district and the State average has diminished
over the nine year span of time from 1996-97 to 2006-07. The school
district is commended for undertaking cost containment measures.
