Colorado K-12 Funding Face Bleak Prospects

Colorado K-12 Funding Face Bleak Prospects


There was no good news about the future of state support for K-12 schools at the Joint Budget Committee's Friday briefing on the Department of Education's 2011-12 budget.

Committee staff analyst Carolyn Kampman told the panel and several other lawmakers who sat in that she recommends no increase for schools next year, and she also said lawmakers will need to adjust school finance law if they want to avoid a large mandated increase in schools spending starting in 2012-13.
