Evers presents ‘Fair Funding for Our Future’ plan

PRAIRIE DU SAC — "We can protect students and enact school finance reform, while holding the line on property taxes even in difficult economic times," said State Superintendent Tony Evers in announcing the "Fair Funding for Our Future" plan to reform how Wisconsin funds its public schools.

• The "Fair Funding for Our Future" plan fixes the school funding formula,
• holds the line on property taxes,
• guarantees state funding for every student,
• strengthens rural schools and schools with declining enrollments,
• accounts for family income and poverty,
• ends the school funding shell game, and
• provides predictable growth in state aid.
