Education budget cuts trimmed but still felt across Illinois
Illinois lawmakers trimmed more than half a billion in the education budget after a special session, restoring only modest portions with most restorations aimed at classrooms. The foundation level will fund at least 4560 dollars per student, with continued concern over teacher shortages and program cuts impacting special education, transportation, early childhood, and need-based grants.
