SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Standards of Quality; apportionment of state and local share. Directs the General Assembly, in apportioning the state and local share for the costs of meeting the Standards of Quality, beginning July 1, 2005, in any year in which general fund revenue growth is at least three percent greater than the population and inflation growth combined for the previous year, to increase the state share by three percent of the total costs, so that, by full implementation of this measure, the local share shall not exceed 65 percent and the state share shall be equal to at least 35 percent of the total costs.
The measure also includes language citing "equal opportunity to a quality education in all areas of the Commonwealth" and stating that "funding formulas are the best and most equitable way for the Commonwealth to distribute the state’s share of costs of educational programs."
