TESTIMONY BEFORE THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE,
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA COUNCIL, OVERSIGHT HEARING ON THE DC PUBLIC SCHOOLS
FY 2010 AND FY 2011
Mary M. Levy March 4, 2011
Good morning. I have studied DCPS data, particularly those related to
budget and staffing, for over 30 years. The main points of today’s
testimony, elaborated in the attached documents are:
1. Even as enrollment has declined in recent years, the number of
central office employees in DCPS has risen. (FY 2003-FY 2007 figures are
adjusted to remove FTEs performing functions now transferred or
contracted out.) About 100 central office employees make more than
$100,000 a year.

2. DCPS per student spending increased dramatically between FY
2007 and FY 2010. Spending rose 28% compared to inflation of about 6%.

3. Excluding special education and language minority funds,
there are enormous differences in per student funding at local schools
that seem almost random. They are not related to student need, but tend to
favor small schools, though by no means consistently. High schools are
funded much less than other levels. PreK-Grade 8 schools are the most
expensive, usually because they have small 7th and 8th grades but have to
have four subject teachers.

4. DCPS has high teacher attrition: 50% overall turnover in five
years. The rate at which we lose newly hired teachers is worse -- 25%
within one year and 50% within two years.
5. The percentage of inexperienced teachers – first or
second year -- has increased significantly in the last five years, from
11.3% in FY 2005 to 19.4% in FY 2010. Wards 2, 3 and 6 had the lowest
percentages of beginning teachers in FY 2010, but their still more than
in FY 2005. The changes are particularly dramatic in Wards 1, 5 and 8.

6. DCPS fiscal transparency is a vanishing dream. Information
available to the public has passed from opaque to almost non-existent. We
have been unable to obtain any current budget information for FY 2011;
both system-wide and local school budgets are only as proposed last
spring. We never see financial reports or audits. I repeat my
recommendations of last year and the year before:
- Order an audit to untangle the incomplete and conflicting data on
budget, expenditures and staffing and to make recommendations on
remedies. We need to determine whether the DCPS budget and spending
are effectively under anyone’s control.
- Mandate that the CFO and DCPS establish a meaningful set of
program/activity codes in the budget, subject only to changes in
program but not re-organization, and publish them with full
definitions.
- Require monthly financial reports in full detail.
- Identify means of enforcing existing laws in this area and
investigate the lack of compliance with existing laws requiring
reporting and public information, for example the DC FOIA requirement
that all public bodies post on the Internet, inter alia (6A)
Budget requests, submissions, and reports available electronically that
agencies, boards, and commissions transmit to the Office of the Budget and
Planning during the budget development process, as well as reports on
budget implementation and execution prepared by the Office of the Chief
Financial Officer, including baseline budget submissions and appeals,
financial status reports, and strategic plans and performance-based budget
submissions (DC Code § 2-536. Information which must be made public,
subsection 6A).
Thank you for this opportunity to testify.
