Harder Outlines School Funding Plans For Kansas Districts
State Sen. Joseph Harder outlined two school finance proposals at a Chamber breakfast. He described a 5 percent funding increase for Lawrence District 497 and others, detailing a governor plan cutting the 10 mill foundation levy and a committee plan pushing a 1.5 percent local income tax funded by local residents. The committee plan would fully fund transportation and special education, while the governor's plan increases state revenue and shifts retiree costs to districts. Transportation changes and social security costs could offset the budget gains.
