Abstract

Josephine M. LaPlante, professor of policy at the Muskie Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Southern Maine, has developed a tax-effort index for Maine municipalities that links school spending to median household income instead of property values and student population. LaPlante believes the new formula will help in overhauling Maine's equalized school funding formula.
