Millersburg board backs PSBA resolution calling for increased state school funding
Summary
The board voted to approve a resolution, promoted by the Pennsylvania School Boards Association (PSBA), calling for changes to the state funding structure to increase school funding; the motion passed by roll call with unanimous support from present members.
The board approved a resolution endorsing a PSBA initiative to change the state funding structure and increase state funding for schools. The item was introduced as a statewide initiative that PSBA is driving and was shared with board members for review.
"This is kinda what we talk about, and here it is," the presenting administrator said, noting that other districts across the state are signing on and that the issues affecting Millersburg are not unique.
The board moved and seconded the resolution and approved it by roll call. The president noted this was the last voting item on the agenda. Administrators indicated the resolution aligns Millersburg with statewide advocacy being coordinated by PSBA.
Next steps listed in meeting discussion included transmitting the signed resolution to PSBA and participating in any joint advocacy actions the association coordinates.
