flag Over 300 demand Connecticut raise per-pupil funding from $11,525 to $15,500 by 2030 to fix inequities and underfunded schools.

flag Over 300 students, educators, and officials testified at a Connecticut hearing urging lawmakers to update the state’s education funding formula, frozen since 2013. flag They called for raising the per-pupil foundation grant from $11,525 to $15,500 by 2030, citing underfunded schools, deteriorating facilities, and inequities tied to wealthier districts. flag Advocates say the state’s $4 billion surplus can support the change, while Republicans warn it could trigger tax hikes. flag The push, backed by Democrats and city leaders, aims to close funding gaps and ensure all students receive a fair education.
