EQUALIZED EDUCATION FUNDING IMPACT STATEMENT

88TH LEGISLATURE 4th CALLED SESSION 2023
 
November 8, 2023

TO:
Honorable Brad Buckley, Chair, House Committee on Educational Opportunity & Enrichment, Select
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB1 by Buckley (Relating to primary and secondary education, including the certification, compensation, and health coverage of certain public school employees, the public school finance system, special education in public schools, the establishment of an education savings account program, measures to support the education of public school students that include certain educational grant programs, reading instruction, and early childhood education, the provision of virtual education, and public school accountability.), As Introduced

The bill would amend or create allotments under the Foundation School Program.  

While this analysis anticipates that increases to the Basic Allotment would be expected to have a positive impact on equalized funding requirements, the total impact on equalized funding requirements of the bill cannot be determined because the impacts related to the other changes to the Foundation School Program are not known.
