Basically, the NYTimes article talks about how the education stimulus package-in the name of expediency-makes use of an old formula that leads to inequitable distribution of funds.   A rejigging of the formula would apparently require “months of negotiations”.  If districts are just happy to be receiving funding despite the inequity, then I don’t see why they wouldn’t be happy with a quick rejigging of the formula and then a distribution of funds.  In both cases the rising tide will lift all ships.  The logic seems to contradict itself.  This seems like a place where good executive leadership could make the difference.
