How much extra funding did your wife's school get in 1999 and 2000, when the states were having a windfall from unexpected capital gain tax receipts? The answer, in all likelihood, is precious little. Then, why should schools get the cut when there is a budgetary shortfall? Goverment officials are inceitivised to give the least budgetary considerations to schools, because they know precisely that voters will vote for more taxation to cover schools but not their pork barrel pet projects for their friends and relatives, so they fund pork barrels first and schools last. If you keep feeding those pigs, you will continue to see a steady drop of percentage of total state budget on education. A vote for tax increase for education is a vote against education, paradoxically.
