2009: McCleary v. State of Washington heard in King County Superior Court
2010: Judge John Erlick rules for the plaintiffs, declaring the State’s failure to fully fund public schools is unconstitutional:
◦ “This court is left with no doubt that under the State’s current financing system, the state is failing in its constitutional duty. “

“State funding is not ample, it is not stable, and it is not dependable…local school districts continue to rely on local levies and other non-state resources to supplement state funding for a basic education.”
“Paramount means preeminent, supreme, and more important than others. Funding K-12 education…is the state’s first and highest priority before any other state programs or operations.”
- Judge John Erlick

Supreme Court rules (January 2012):◦ The State “has consistently failed” to provide the
ample funding required by the Constitution.
◦ “Reliance on levy funding to finance basic education was unconstitutional 30 years ago in Seattle School District, and it is unconstitutional now.”
Supreme Court Orders State to:◦ “demonstrate steady progress” under ESHB 2261;
and
◦ “show real and measurable progress” towards full Article IX, Section 1 compliance by 2018.

In 2009, ESHB 2261 adopted, establishing a new definition of basic education and a new education funding system.
ESHB 2261 stated the Legislature’s intent to “enhance the current salary allocation model,” with the understanding that “continuing to attract and retain the highest quality educators will require increased investments.”

“Substantial evidence at trial also showed that the State consistently underfunded staff salaries and benefits. Testimony revealed that the State allocation for salaries and benefits fell far short of the actual cost of recruiting and retaining competent teachers, administrators, and staff.”

The Court & Compensation

22
“Another area in which the State's Report falls short concerns personnel costs. Quality educators and administrators are the heart of Washington's education system. The Report … skims over the fact that state funding of educator and administrative staff salaries remains constitutionally inadequate.”
- McCleary Order

“Nothing could be more basic than adequate pay. The inescapable fact is that salaries for educators in Washington are no better now than when this case went to trial....It is deeply troubling that the State's Report does not address this component of ESHB 2261 or offer any plan for meeting its goals.”

Key Recommendations:
Fund the full cost of basic education labor first, followed by other improvements as outlined in ESHB 2261 and SHB 2776
Update and implement recommendations of Compensation Technical Working Group
Recognize and mitigate impact of any reduction to local levy authority on districts’ ability to meet financial obligations
