Bill Summary
Relative to deducting school choice tuition amounts from state aid for public schools. Education.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to deduct school choice tuition amounts from the state education aid of public schools when students enroll in a receiving district. The maximum tuition amount is set at $6,500 per student, with a sliding scale fee structure that takes into account the percentage of economically disadvantaged students in the sending district. The state treasurer is authorized to deduct the tuition amount from the sending district's total education aid and deposit it in the School Choice Tuition Trust Fund. If the total deductions exceed the district's state aid, the excess amount will be deducted from other municipal aid or appropriated by the commonwealth, unless the district has opted out of the state's education funding formula.
