Peace and Justice Education Event: The Search for Equity in Education Funding
October 24, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Thursday, October 24, 2024
7–8 p.m. on Zoom
With Senator Laura Sturgeon, Chair, Public Education Funding Commission
Among the most pressing issues in Delaware education today is the current funding formula for Delaware public schools, which has been in place unchanged since 1940 and is acknowledged to be unresponsive to our students’ current needs. Delaware’s Public Education Funding Commission was created by the General Assembly in its last session to review public education funding for all students served by district and charter schools, propose improvements to the system, and serve as an ongoing body to review the funding annually and recommend updates and changes. Join us as Commission Chair Senator Laura Sturgeon shares her perspective on the work ahead. Hosted by Westminster’s Peace & Justice Work Group.
