What happened to school finance reform? - Connecticut Post: "Glowing tributes aside, SB 24 misses the mark on school finance reform. Except for improving the way poor and limited English proficient students are to be counted in the ECS formula, SB 24's fiscal provisions are troubling. So, too, is the silence of education leaders about those school finance changes, given their local budget crises and long-standing outcries against unfunded and underfunded state mandates. Their silence begs a few questions, especially those that focus on SB 24's inadequate funding of what will be required of the state's 30 lowest-performing districts and issues of equity for children and taxpayers.
For Struggling Districts, Reform Costs Will Outweigh ECS Increases"
