BILL NUMBER:S2116 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the education law, in relation to foundation aid and the minimum local contribution thereto PURPOSE: To provide more equity in the school aid formula for school districts with low income wealth. SUMMARY:; Section 1 amends subparagraph 1 of paragraph (h) of subdivision 2 of section 3602 of the education law in order to adjust the school district enrollment level used in creating a total wealth foundation pupil unit. Section 2 amends subparagraph 4 of paragraph (a) of subdivision 4 of section 3602 of the education law in order to provide equity in the expected local contribution formula. Section 3 provides the enacting clause. JUSTIFICATION: The state faces an ongoing challenge in the fair distribution of state aid to our public schools. While all schools benefit from increased funding, low-wealth and rural schools have unique circumstances that create inequity in the state aid formula.
