Abstract
This study illustrates the problem of efficiency measurement in stochastic input-output systems when market price data are unavailable. Efficiency comparisons by non-parametric methods are attempted for selected public elementary schools in California for 1976-77 and 1977-78. A suitable linear programming model is developed for the efficiency frontier in the input-output space, which is found to be significantly different from an average relation. This is shown to have important policy implications for improving input performance for better efficiency.
