Figures comparing
the per pupil expenditures of Department of Defense and non-Department
of Defense schools can be misleading. It should be noted that non-DoD
school systems receive significant additional support through state
and federal grant programs and private sector donations. These funds,
which can represent a sizable percentage of a school system's budget,
are not reflected in the published per pupil costs. In contrast,
DoD schools are not eligible for grants, or foundation or private
sector support, and the published per pupil expenditures include
all funds appropriated for instruction and instructional support.
