Changed headline from the site to be a bit more clear

Edit: to clarify the original headline makes it sound like taxes are 440% higher when it means taxes going to education are 440% higher

Edit 2: 2nd attempt of clarifying the title

    Your new title says the school district’s costs are 440% higher than private schools.

    It should say “higher cost because of”
    “higher cost over” implies “more, greater than”… It doesn’t imply “higher because of”

      Ah, I misunderstood what you were saying. I suppose I presumed too much background from others about how private school vouchers worked. The school districts is the one paying for the private school vouchers. Their costs were higher because of private voucher funding

      Changed the title again to hopefully be more clear

        It’s a good article though and provides information about an important topic, I didn’t mean to nitpick

          Clearly others found my attempts to clarify it to be confusing too, so thanks for pointing out that it wasn’t the best title
