SB 122 West Virginia Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Establishing minimum student enrollment for school aid formula

SB 122 establishes a minimum student enrollment of 1,200 for calculating state school funding in West Virginia. It amends the school aid formula to ensure counties with fewer than 1,200 students still receive funding based on this minimum, rather than their actual enrollment. This directly affects all West Virginia public school districts receiving state aid, preventing smaller counties from being disadvantaged in funding calculations. The bill sets this floor for the "basic foundation program" to maintain consistent support for school districts.
