How Much Does Each State Spend On Education?

The federal government may potentially cut education spending, meaning schools could start relying more on state funding instead. But how much does each state spend on schools? According to Kaiser Family Foundation data, Nevada spends 62% of its total budget on education. California spends the highest dollar amount with $86 billion going toward students every year. Wyoming and New Hampshire allocate just $1.3 billion dollars toward state education budgets, the lowest dollar amounts in the country. (DIGG)
