How does next years aid look?

The governors proposal is for a $570,000

cut to base state aid, overall $777,291. This is a starting point.

The state budget needs to be passed bythe legislature.

Traditionally, they have put money backinto education.

8/41

Federal Stimulus Package

Federal money is earmarked for certain programs.

Title 1: $31,000 IDEA: $138,500

These will need to follow Federal guidelines andcannot just be used to offset tax rates.

Additional state stabilization money may replacesome of the aid lost under the governors

original proposal. (Deficit Reduction)8
