SB 69 embraces the spirit of the Governor's local control funding formula but increases accountability and modifies some aspects. It agrees with the goals of making funding more equitable and focused on disadvantaged students, while providing flexibility. However, it addresses issues like ensuring adequate funding for all districts and that supplemental funds target stated student groups. The Senate proposal differs from the Governor's in areas like base grants, supplemental grants, and accountability measures, and it would take effect a year later.
