PAID ADVERTISMENT RISING TAXES! Falling Academic Performance! $25,870 was the approximate cost per student in QV during 2018-2019.

How does that compare to highly ranked school districts: 46% higher than #1 South Fayette's cost per student of $19,029. 28% higher than #2 Upper Saint Clair's cost per student of $21,799 40% higher than #3 Mount Lebanon's cost per student of $19,721. In the 18 years since fiscal year 2002-2003, QV has had to raise tax rates: 16 TIMES for a total of 40% And that does not count the higher tax revenue they get from reassessments.

OVER 50% of the county's public schools do better at teaching 4th grade English than the Osborne Elementary School. More than 20% of the county's public schools do better at teaching 8th grade math than the Quaker Valley Middle School.
