AN ACT INCREASING THE FOUNDATION AMOUNT FOR THE EDUCATION COST SHARING GRANT FORMULA.

SB 878 increases the base funding amount used in Connecticut's state education grant formula for public school districts. This change directly affects all public school districts that receive state education funding through the cost-sharing grant system. The bill amends Section 10-262f of the general statutes to raise the foundation amount, which determines the minimum per-pupil funding each district receives. This adjustment aims to provide more state support for school operating costs across the state.
