The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development – which groups the world’s most developed countries – wrote in its annual education report that the United States spent more than $11,000 per elementary student in 2010 and more than $12,000 per high school student. When researchers factored in the cost for programs after high school education such as college or vocational training, the United States spent $15,171 on each young person in the system – more than any other nation covered in the report.
