Did you know that lawmakers in Albany want to turn school funding into a game?
$250 million in this year's Executive Budget for school aid is carved out as a competitive grant program that will benefit only a select few districts.

Moving the proposed grant funding back into general operating aid will allow all school districts greater flexibility as they work to restore critical programs and student services hit hard by last year's devastating cuts and the new property tax cap law.
Share it with friends, family, colleagues and others interested in our kids' futures.
It's part of NYSUT's campaign to tell Albany that supporting education shouldn’t be based on a competition.
