Abstract

This study presents the significance of primary and secondary school funding in the State of New Hampshire and its related effects on the University System. Two main research questions are examined. Does the primary and secondary school funding structure impact University System of New Hampshire funding? What impact has the debate around the terms "adequate" and "equitable" had on educational funding? Comparisons between primary and secondary school funding and the University System of New Hampshire funding are examined.With New Hampshire's unique history and large Legislative body, educational funding at all levels can become an often discussed topic. A seventy-five person sample is analyzed and presented in the thesis; as are recommendations for further study.
