Statewide school apportionment shows inequalities in funds
Indiana completes semiannual school fund apportionment totaling about 1.904 million dollars based on 774,642 children. Per child share is 2.33 dollars, revealing large counties pay in more than they receive.

Changes to a constitutional convention were blocked by the supreme court, while cities object to heat unit cuts and coal-rate hikes. Indiana knitters push to supply socks for National Guard soldiers, targetting 4,000 pairs by September.
