The Last Bake Sale
The Fight for Fair School Funding
Book •
Andy Volinsky's 'The Last Bake Sale' examines New Hampshire's school funding system and argues that reliance on local property taxes is inequitable and unsustainable.
The book presents the author's case for shifting most education funding to state-level revenue, including a proposed income-tax plan, and explains the moral and economic rationales for reform.
Volinsky weaves policy analysis with local examples—such as the Claremont cases—to illustrate disparities between wealthy and poor communities.
He addresses common objections, details specific proposals (like the 3-3 plan), and offers practical steps for implementing systemic change.
The work aims to persuade New Hampshire residents and policymakers to reconsider how public education is financed to achieve greater equity and stability.
