Subcommittee Discussion

Foundation Aid is also the main funding formula and is flexible in how districts can utilize additional funding. Should the Proposal focus on providing additional funding through the Foundation Aid formula, which is flexible and is directed to high need districts, or does the Board want to make targeted investments within the 5 E’s framework?
