Kansas School Finance Idea Falls Upon Deaf Ears
TOPEKA AP The school finance conference committee met to hear Rep. Denise Apt's plan to resolve 1987-88 district aid deadlock. Big districts oppose the plan citing potential losses. The six-member panel did not vote and will reconvene to discuss Apt's proposal and other Senate ideas. Apt's plan would allow districts to raise 1987-84 budgets by 2 percent if above the enrollment median and 3.5 percent if below, plus an extra 3.28 million in general aid added to the formula this week.
