IN RE:
HB1335 by Simmons (Relating to the establishment of an education savings account program for certain children with special needs and other educational disadvantages.), As Introduced

The bill would have an indeterminate effect on equalized funding requirements and policies pertaining to the Foundation School Program. School districts across the spectrum of property value per weighted student may experience effects under the bill. Accordingly, implications concerning equalized funding requirements within the Foundation School Program would vary depending on the characteristics of districts affected and the degree of effect experienced.
