Regents Proposal
on State Aid to School Districts for 2005-06 - The Regents State Aid proposal for 2005-06 builds upon a foundation
formula proposal begun last year and responds to recommendations of a
CFE Referee Panel. Its goal is to provide a State funding system for
education that provides adequate resources through a State and local
partnerships so that all students have the opportunity to achieve the State's
learning standards, including resources for extra time and help for students.
The full proposal is available from the web address below in the following
formats: HTML, PDF and Microsoft Word.

Regents 2004-05 State Aid Proposal: The Regents State Aid proposal for
2004-05 implements a new, multi-year approach to State and local
funding of public schools designed to close the student achievement
gap. It proposes a "Foundation Formula" for the distribution of
State Aid that assists school districts with the costs of general
education instruction, to be phased in over a seven-year period.

Nov. 10, 2003 - Regents Proposal on School
Aid for School Year 2004-05: At
their November meeting, the Board of Regents will consider two approaches for its
2004-2005 school aid proposal: (1) continuing and building upon recent State Aid
proposals; and (2) a foundation formula approach with a mandated local effort requirement.
The foundation formula would set forth an amount to support the basic education of a pupil
and a standard of local support in terms of a tax rate and calculates the amount of local
support that each district would collect if it actually imposed this specified tax rate.
State Aid would provide the difference between the foundation amount and that which the
school district would raise with this tax rate. The Regents will deliberate in November
and agree upon an approach to pursue. A full proposal will be developed for approval by
the Regents in December.
