FOREWORD
The object of this bulletin is to present certain data pertaining
to the financial support, financial ability, and inequalities still
existing among the county and independent school districts in Ken-,
tucky. Purposely this publication follows a pattern similar to theL
bulletin published in April 1939; January, 1941; and April, 1943.
These comparable data may enable school administrators, stuf
dents of education, and patrons of our schools to study quantitatively 1'
and to evaluate objectively, certain financial trends and tendencies‘
in the public schools 'of the Commonwealth.
This bulletin was prepared by Dr. J. D. Falls, Chief of the
Bureau of Finance. Owing to the importance of its contents, I invite
the thoughtful consideration of both patrons and school officials to
the information presented herein. This information should be of
assistance in improving the financial program of the different school
districts of the state.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT, FINANCIAL ABILITY, AND IN-
EQUALITIES IN VARIOUS SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN
' KENTUCKY
Introduction
The purpose of this bulletin is to release data and information
pertaining to certain financial phases of the common public school
systems of Kentucky. These data have been assembled in tables
comparable to those published in similar bulletins in previous years
, treating the financial. status at various developmental stages of
these'schools. This quantitative presentation is divided into three
sections:
Section I concerns the distributions of teachers’ salaries in
county and independent districts for the school year of 1944—45.
Section II relates to some comparisons in (a) increases in aver-
age annual salaries; (b) increases in basal salaries; (c) rates paid
teachers per hour of college training, and rates per year of teaching
experience; and (d) length of school term in county schools.
Section III deals with the financial support of education in the
State and in each local school district for 1944—45. All data and in-
formation are substantiated by records and reports in the files of the
Bureau of Finance in the State Department of Education.
SECTION I
The approved salary schedules of all the 257 school districts for
194445 indicate that there are now 17,710 full-time teaching posi-
tions in the common schools in Kentucky. There were 18,871 such
teaching positions in 1940—41,1 and 18,180 in 1942—43,2 or a total
reduction of 1,161 full-time teaching positions since our entering the
World War II. At present these 17,710 full-time teachers are dis-
tributed as follows: County school districts, 11,966; independent
districts other than those in cities of the first four classes 1,048; and
those in the first four classes 4,696. "
Method of Treatment: The monthly salary of each full-time
teacher has been translated into an annual salary. The annual-sal—
aries in all approved schedules have been tabulated and the medians
calculated with respect to teaching levels, race and sex.

Table I
It is seen that the median or typical annual salary of all teachers ‘
received in the county systems, is $960 in 1944-45. This is an annual i
increase of $299 over 1942—43, and $349 over 1940—41. See this
Table for median salaries of teaching levels, races, sex.
'1
Table II ,
The median annual salary of teachers in all independent dis-
tricts other than those in cities of the first four classes is $1,193 for ,
1944—45. This is an increase of $281 over 1942—43, and $356 over '
1940—41. See this Table for median salaries of teaching levels, races ‘
and sex.
Table III
The typical annual salary for all teachers in cities of the first
four classes in 1944—45 is $1,635. This is an increase of $282 over .
1942~43, and $349 over 1940—41. See this Table for median salaries .
of teaching levels, races and sex.
Table IV
The median salary for all teachers in all districts (257) for
1944—45 is $1,094. This is an increase of $312 over 1942—43, and I
$377 over 1940—41. By further inspection and comparison it may
be noted that in 1940—41 there were 2,398 teachers in the State who
received less than $500 annually. In 1942—43, there were 1,229 who ,
received less than this amount. In 1944~45 only 29 teachers received
less than $500. A $500 annual salary is equivalent to $9.62 per week
over a fifty-two week period. Surely no community can expect very
much service from any teacher with such meager pay. This is $594
below the average for the State. The approximate average state
basal salary is $92 per month—equivalent to $644 for seven-month
term, and $828 for a nine-month term.
Progress certainly has been made during the last four years, but
there is still much to be done in raising teachers’ salaries to fair
wages, and keeping them on a more permanent basis, lest they fluc‘ '
tuate from year to year thus forcing the most capable teachers to '
leave the profession.
Table V
These data are presented primarily to show the relative differ- :
ences in the salaries of the 17,710 men and women teaching in the
State. In 1940—41 there were 5,973 men and 12,898 women whose ;
average salaries were $738 and $710 respectively; in 1942—43 4,190

women whose average annual salaries are $1,433 and $1,071 respec-
tively. There is still much to be done to bring about the proper
functioning of the single salary sc equal pay for equal train—
ing and service regardless of teaching level, sex or race.
Table VI
The purpose of this Table is to call attention to the differences
still existing between the white and colored teachers of the State. The
State median annual salary of white teachers in 1940~+11 was $706;
in 1942—43, it was $769; and in 191-11415 it is $1,085 or a total increase
of $379 during this four-year period. The State median annual
‘ salary of colored teachers in 1940—41 was $807; in 1942—43 it, was
$907; and in 1944—45 it is $1,225 or a, total increase of $418. Al-
though this increase may seem out of proportion to that of the white
teachers, but in the independent districts where the colored teachers
are largely concentrated, their salaries are still too far below the
salaries of the white teachers in. those particular districts. In many
of the larger independent districts and some of the more wealthy
county districts the si1111lc sala1v schedule is functioning; but in the
smaller and less wealthy districts the differentials are still too great.
Table VII
This is a comparison between. the salaries of elementary and
high-school teachers. ln 1940—41 there were 13, ‘ 3-17 elementary
teachers ando " ,324 hi11'l1 school teachers whose aver-21116 annual sal-
aries were $62 5 and $1, 069 lespectix elv; in 1942—43, $1576 and $1,139
leSPGCt-IVEly; and in 19—14—15, $9841 and $1,456 lespectively. Again,
it is seen that the single salary schedule is not being properly ad-
ministered especially in the smaller independent and poorer county
districts.
Howey e11, it should be emphas ized that the typical annual high-
sehool salaiy involves principals, coaches, vocational '1'1ag110111t111e
teachers, and home economics teachels who unifonnly 1eceive 11i11her
salaiies than hi11h— school teachers do; and that, 011 the avera11e,high-
SChool teaclieis have more professional trainin11 than elementary
teachers. It should be mentioned that, since the 1c1111ths of the school
terms vary from seven to ten months in Cll ffe1e11t d1st11ets the all-
nual salaries, perforce, vary 111athematically.

Tables VIII, IX, X lenn'tl
These Tables deal with the salaries of white and colored teachers , moiitl
in the 257 county and independent districts of the State for 1944—45, '\. depen
without respect to grade level or sex. The medians are not calm in 19.
lated. However, anyone desiring to compare one school district with school
any other, or a geographical group with other groups of districts in of the
the State, may find the tables useful for determining the medians,
quartiles or eentiles for districts considered.
SECTION 11 T
The data presented in Section 'II are taken from the same “1.6 p1
sources as those treated in Section T, which are the approved teachers’ in“ e:

of time.

more months, they are not considered herein. The mean average
length of the county elementary school term in 1943—44 was 7.55
months, and in 1944—45 it is 7.69. The mean average length of ill-
dependent elementary school term in 1943—44 was 8.94 months, while
in 1944—45 it is 9.08. During this period the county, elementary
school term was lengthened by approximately three days, and to that
of the independent schools was added one more day.
SECTION III
The statistical presentation in Section III of this study indicates
the present financial support, the financial ability, and inequalities
still existing among the various public school districts in Kentucky.
The assessed valuations and tax rates were obtained from the general
budget for 1944—45.
Table XV
This table points out in Column 4, these differentials as meas-
ured by the ratios of census pupils to assessments of corporate
and non-corporate property in each county—school district. Follow—
ing the pattern of other similar bulletins, the writer has not consid—
ered poll tax, levy on bank shares, allowance for collection of school
taxes and delinquent taxes, Subdistrict tax or whiskey withdrawal
tax. It is trues by eliminating these incomes not common to all dis-
tricts in the State, that the foundational data are kept comparable
so far as general property and assessment of tax-paying franchise
corporations are concerned; but to omit these noncommensurate in-
comes is to fail to depict the total actual inequalities among all dis-
tricts. Even VVoodford County with its per census-pupil assessment
0f $10,717 and tax levy of 30 cents, and Clinton County with its per
census-pupil assessment wealth of $408 and tax rate of 75 cents, do
not present the total picture of inequalities in the support of public
education in these two districts.
T0'portray a more nearly total picture, the total local incomes of
all districts should be considered. / However, these data herein intro-
duced, do suggest certain trends and tendencies in the support of
The Dublic schools in local districts.
Table XVI
This Table relates to the same foundational data in independent
_ 01 districts not included in cities of the first four classes, as are 7
fhsplayed in Table 15. Here, too, serious inequalities still exist even
in the smaller communities. Note Anchorage with its per census-
seho
95
pupil assessment of $8,663, and Gatlit't with $205 per census-pupil
assessment.
Table XVII
Table 17 embracing cities of the first four classes, concerns the
same type of foundational data as in Tables 15 and 16 and similar
comparisons may be made. Note that Fort Thomas has $9,132 per
census—pupil wealth while Corbin has $1,129.
It is evident from the wide range displayed in Tables 15, 16
and 17, that equal educational opportunities simply do not exist in
this State. Louisville is able to maintain a much better system of
schools by levying only 741/2 cents for general educatimial purposes,
than many other communities maintain by levying- their maximum
rates.
Table XVIII
This is a, summarization ol" Tables 15, 16 and 17. Here the
medians and rangres have been calculated. (‘olumn “State at Large,”
gives the totals of the three types of districts. By taking: the
median, $2,267, as the typical amount of money back of each census-
pnpil assessment of corporate and non-corporate property. t'air com- t
parisons may be made among: these three types of districts. The
median for the 120 county districts is $2,000; that: of the independent
school districts except, cities of the first. four classes is $2,354; and
the median of the independent school districts in cities of the first
four classes, is $2,875.
The ranges in these three types of districts are $10,305), $8,458.
and $8,003 1"espeeti'ely; while that for the Htate at Large, is $10,512
The latter range indicates a very wide divergeney or median devia-
tion in considering- the State as a whole.
Table XIX ‘
This Table has two main purposes: (a) to show how much mone." :
ts back of each census pupil when local assessment income from fixell ;
levy plus eensns per capita, money, is considered; and (b) how much 1
money would be back of each census pupil when local assessment i11-
eome from the maximum levy plus census per capita money, is 1'9- "
fleetcd.
Only thirteen counties (lid not levy the maximum ol’ 75 celllS
for general school purposes for 19—11—45: Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle-
Clark, Estill, Franklin, Garrard, Harrison, Jessamine, Lewis, Mont—
gomery, Nelson, and \Voodt’ord. The latter made a levy of only 30

cents- Some Of these counties can ill afford to levy less than the
maximum. Mason and Carter have exceeded the maximum levy for
regular school purposes, by 21 cents and 25 cents respectively, to
administer better educational program. Section 160.150 Kentucky
Revised Statutes permits such special levies.
The significance of the various factors in this Table is so obvious,
that further discussion would be superfluous. However, it may be
added that Column. 10 contains the maximum levy that may be made
for general school purposes in county districts. The legal authority
is found in sections 160.490; and 160.150, subsection 5, Kentucky
Revised Statutes.
Table XX
,This Table concerns the calculations for distributing the special
State Equalization Fund of $1,500,000 appropriated by the General
Assembly of 1944, for the purpose of aiding school districts whose
‘total net recurring revenue was not sufficient to yield as much as
$40 per pupil in average daily membership. The amount of recurring
revenue for each district was obtained from the annual financial re-
ports of June 80, 1943.
As an explanation of this Table the first row of figures may be
lead: Clinton County had a need-ability index of $22.37 as shown
in column 2, which means that it needed $17.63 more ($40.00—$22.37 )
per pupil in average daily membership to place $40 back of each of
the 1,812 children as indicated in Column 3. Now 1,812 times $40
equals $72,480, the total amount needed. But Clinton County al-
ready had only $40,507.05 net ability from recurring revenue, so the
difference of $31,972.95 would have been made up from the Equali-
zation Fund of $1,500,000, if this sum had been sufficient to make
up also the total deficiencies in all other participating districts. Since
it'Would have taken $2,418,333.43 as indicated in total of column 6
to guarantee $40 per average daily membership pupil, therefore,
under the law, each qualified district had to share proportionately
in the $1,500,000. Thus the Clinton County district received approx-
imately 62.013% of the amount required ($31,972.95) to make $40
available, which equaled to $19,827.39. '
Note: When Estill County failecf to qualify, its potential share
and the fractional part not originally distributed were prorated to
all other qualified districts. In this manner Clinton County re-
ceived a redistributed amount of $67.42.
