AN ACT CONCERNING FULL AND EQUITABLE SCHOOL FUNDING.

SB 1167 requires Connecticut to provide full need-based funding for all public school students, eliminating general education tuition fees. It mandates equitable financial support for every public school, including schools of choice (like charters), to ensure all students receive adequate resources. The bill aims to remove financial barriers by aligning state funding with actual student needs rather than relying on local tax revenue. This directly affects all Connecticut public school students and their schools by changing how state education funds are allocated. The legislation seeks to achieve equitable school funding as stated in its purpose, without specifying new tax measures or timelines.
