Kathy Hochul, New York City\u2019s public schools have been bracing to receive hundreds of millions less than they would have received otherwise.\r\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1px4eze-0 fAQmnu body-paragraph\">The city\u2019s public schools are expected to receive about $314 million less than they would have under the current formula, known as Foundation Aid, according to figures provided by the office of State. Sen John Liu, the chairman of the state senate\u2019s New York City Education Committee.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1px4eze-0 fAQmnu body-paragraph\">The city will still see an overall increase in Foundation Aid next year of $539 million, bringing the total to $10.46 billion, according to\u00a0state budget documents. A Hochul spokesperson emphasized that total state funding for public schools across New York is poised to hit $37.6 billion, a $1.7 billion increase.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1px4eze-0 fAQmnu body-paragraph\">Nearly all observers and policymakers agree that the state\u2019s two-decade-old Foundation Aid formula, which accounts for the majority of state funding for public schools, needed an overhaul. A report from the Rockefeller Institute of Government commissioned by the state and released last year also\u00a0called for significant changes. But\u00a0Hochul\u2019s tweaks have disappointed many advocates.<\/p>\r\n\u201cThe federal guidelines make no adjustments for the local cost of living; they are the same in the five boroughs as in a rural community upstate, a Midwestern suburb, or a small town in the Sunbelt,\u201d wrote Kim Sweet, the executive director of Advocates for Children, a group that works with low-income families. \u201cWhile an overhaul of the outdated formula is sorely needed, the limited changes make matters worse.\u201d","":null,"settings":""}}],"relationships":{"":null,"article_type":[83],"topics":false,"misc_topics":[183]},"misc":{"search_results":{"":null,"excerpt":"","featured_image":13341}}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
