In 2014, parents of students at Horace Mann Elementary School in Northwest Washington, D.C., spent over $ 470,000 of their own money to support the school's programs.1 With just under 290 students enrolled for the 2013 - 14 school year, this means that, in addition to public funding, Horace Mann spent about an extra $ 1,600 for each student.2 Those
dollars — equivalent to 9 percent of the District of Columbia's average per - pupil spending3 — paid for
