Relating to: per pupil aid. (FE)
SB 603 would change how state per-pupil aid is calculated for school districts starting in the 2026-27 school year. It requires districts to receive an annual increase equal to the positive change in another specific high school funding formula (s. 119.23(4)(bg)3) for students in grades 9-12. This directly affects all public school districts receiving state per-pupil aid. The bill ensures funding grows each year based on actual changes to high school funding, rather than using a fixed percentage.
