Michigan budget boosts per pupil funding to 8700
Michigan lawmakers approved a record 17.1 billion dollar budget plus federal COVID relief boosting education aid. Per pupil funding rises to 8700, with 240 million for counselors and nurses, 75 million for HVAC upgrades, 6 million for CTE and 4 million for early literacy. Schools face ongoing equity challenges and a need to adjust funding formulas to account for student needs. Detroit Public Schools holds 1.2 billion in pandemic relief funds as concern grows about post relief use and long term effects.
