The substantial expenditures required to sustain smaller classes are justified by the belief that smaller classes increase student learning. by one student would save at least $12 billion per year in teacher salary costs alone, which is roughly equivalent to the outlays of Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, the federal government’s largest single K-12 education program. For example, increasing the pupil/teacher ratio in the U.S. The current fiscal environment has forced states and districts to rethink their CSR policies given the high cost of maintaining small classes. In recent decades, at least 24 states have mandated or incentivized class-size reduction (CSR). Legislative mandates on maximum class size have been very popular at the state level. Class size is one of the small number of variables in American K-12 education that are both thought to influence student learning and are subject to legislative action.
