Official Facebook of the School and State Finance Project, a nonpartisan policy organization focused on ensuring all public school students receive equitable education funding that supports their learning needs The School and State Finance Project is a a nonpartisan, nonprofit policy organization that works collaboratively with policymakers, communities, and other key stakeholders to develop data-
driven solutions that ensure all public school students receive equitable education funding that supports their learning needs. Since our founding in 2015, we have secured an additional $526 million in need-based funding for Connecticut's public school students, directly engaged nearly 15,000 community members, and led the effort to implement a comprehensive, student-centered funding formula. We are an independent and trustworthy source of high-quality research and accessible analysis, and serve as a bridge between those who demand equity for all students and the elected leaders who are charged with making policy. Our work includes conducting front-line community engagement work with families, students, and schools; building public knowledge about how Connecticut funds K-12 education; and increasing transparency around education funding and district spending by providing greater public access to timely, accurate, and easy-to-understand data and information.
