Dunno about that, but the per pupil numbers are all over the place. E.g., among our old neighbors in the Garden State, total spending per pupil in places like Saddle River and Northern Valley are around $25,000. Alpine is $29,000. But Fairview and Oradell are under $13,000. Newark is $23,500 - higher than NYC's $18,000. But all that special ed and remedial stuff is expensive.
The data's all here:
