Supplementing and amending appropriations to the Department of Education, State Board of Education – State Aid to Schools

HB 109 is a budget amendment that reduces the amount of state funding allocated to West Virginia schools for the fiscal year 2025. The bill directly affects the Department of Education and the State Board of Education by lowering their approved budget totals. Specifically, it decreases the appropriation for "Other Current Expenses" and adjusts the total state aid provided to school districts. This legislation serves to cut spending within the designated education fund rather than adding new resources.
