reaching for my economics professor's hat . . .

It's not just California.  For the US as a whole, there is a negative
correlation between educational spending and results.

Also, there are serious problems with the way data is reported.
Nevada appears at the bottom of a spending list because it's school
construction goes into a separate budget, and doesn't get counted as
educational spending like most states . . .
