A staff member told meeting attendees that the state revised its fiscal year 2025 allocation to local schools to $26,456,135, citing an update dated May 29. The figure was disclosed in response to a committee member's question about additional state money for schools.
The committee member asked "Lynette, I think I heard you comment that the state had given the schools more money. How much money?"
