Deer Valley Unified School DistrictAnalysis of Classroom Dollar Report

• As an example, from the FY09 Classroom Dollar Report the DVUSD Plant Operation appears to:– Have a lower cost per square footage than the peer

group and the State– Have a lower dollar amount per pupil than the peer

group and the State– But the amount per pupil is a only slightly less on a

percentage of the total per pupil (11.0%) than the peer group (11.2%) and the State is greater yet (11.6%)

Why? Is there more to this story?

ADM per Custodian is 145 FTE; DVUSD is 128 FTE

• We also know from the Classroom Dollar Report that DVUSD has less square footage per student than our peer districts (125 vs. 137)

• DVUSD has 11.7% more FTE and 8.7% fewer square footage (SF/Student)

• DVUSD cost for Plant Operations is in line with comparable districts as a percentage of total spending

• DVUSD costs for Plant Operations is lower than comparable districts on a per pupil basis
