“Utah’s funding effort, as measured by the proportion of Utah incomes dedicated to funding K-12 public education, has fallen significantly since 1995. Utah’s downward trend in funding effort over this period has been unprecedented. . . Utah’s per pupil spending for K-12 public education is last in the nation, and

has been since 1988.” (Utah Foundation Report, June 2011)
