Education (School Funding)

This bill amends how District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) calculate individual school budgets by adding "average position cost" as a factor. This cost includes salary for school-based educators, specifically referencing Washington Teacher Union members. The key change requires adjusting each school's budget for the next fiscal year based on the projected increase in this average cost. The amendment modifies existing budgeting law (D.C. Code § 38-2851.01 et seq.) to incorporate this new factor. It directly affects DCPS school budget calculations and educator funding levels.
