House Democrats propose new Kansas school funding plan

The House briefs blend Gov. Finney's task force ideas with added local control. It sets a base state aid per pupil at 3675 dollars, weights for higher cost programs, allows up to 10 percent local budget increases, and uses a 45 mill statewide levy with state aid to bond debt. Wealthier districts rely on local taxes. poorer districts receive state help, with projected costs.
