Artesia schools threaten suit over funding shortfall
Artesia Public Schools will sue the state and its Board of Education if funding for next year remains below the statewide average. Superintendent Mike Phipps cites unequal per student allocations, with Artesia at about $3000 versus state average $3506 and neighboring districts higher. A special Senate bill proposed by Sen. Gary Don Reagan would create a 2 percent top-up to aid the lowest-funded districts, but it faces weak committee support.
