Indiana’s new state budget has included record funding for schools
The state’s new two-year budget has invested a historic $2.9 billion in new K-12 funding. This includes a $1.5 billion increase in tuition support, 62% of which will go toward teacher pay and benefits.
The budget also allows for eliminating textbook and technology fees for children in public schools, provides an additional $11 million for Secured School Safety Grants and expands eligibility for Indiana’s Choice Scholarship program so nearly every child can attend the school that best fits their unique learning needs.
