School Budget Cuts:  Classroom Size?

One of the things that happens when there is a budget cut for a school, is classroom size increases. How does that help the budget? And if you have fewer teachers, wouldn’t they have to be paid more because they are replacing the ones who are no longer teaching?

    It helps the budget because the teachers do not have to be paid more.

    It however does not help the quality of education the kids in the classroom are receiving.

    Why should teachers get paid more just because they have more students to teach ("program", actually, in most government schools)?  Budget cuts cause schools to close and those "little darlings" need to go  somewhere to be programmed about "climate change" and other such hysteria.  I don't understand how any school budget can be cut since the unconstitutional Department of (No One Gets an) Education gets more and more and more tax dollars every year while producing the same results.

    Eliminating the untold millions of illegal aliens taking funds and resources from public schools would lowers costs and increase the quality of education for the students that are legal citizens .

    For some reason school budget cuts NEVER reduce the size of the bureaucratic staff nor reduce the superintendent's salary..... hmmm.
