 The
Combined Wealth Ratio (CWR) compares district wealth to the State
average wealth, which is defined as 1.0. A district with a CWR of
less than 1.0 has wealth below the State average. Conversely, a
district with a CWR of more than 1.0 has wealth above the State
average. The CWR is calculated as follows: (0.5 multiplied by the
Pupil Wealth Ratio) + (0.5 multiplied by the Alternate Pupil Wealth
Ratio). The Pupil Wealth Ratio is equal to the actual value of
property in 1998 divided by a weighted pupil count. The Alternate
Pupil Wealth Ratio is equal to the 1998 Adjusted Gross Income of a
district divided by a weighted pupil count. |
