HD 2757 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to state aid for public schools

HD 2757 creates a new Municipal Education Fund to provide targeted state aid to public school districts. The fund specifically supports minimum aid communities, below-effort districts, gateway cities, rural districts, and schools serving many high-need students. It revises how local education funding is calculated by establishing new percentage caps (82.5% to 88.5%) for a municipality's required local contribution based on their combined effort yield relative to school costs. The bill also mandates an annual report on fund use and establishes a special commission to review the entire school funding formula, including how effort yields and local contributions are determined.
