How does Mead Compare with Surrounding Districts?
Mead is not only proud to be an effective school district, but also a district that is efficient in the management of its finances and resources. A recent article in the 2010 Spokane Journal of Business Market Fact Book indicated that Mead School District spends less on a per pupil basis that any other district in Spokane County. These figures are for the 2008-09 school year and include all costs, including federal programs and state programs such as transportation and food service, as well as local programs such as extra-curricular activities. The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction also supports these numbers. The Washington State average was $9,807 per pupil.
