Norman Public Schools is down about $6 million in state aid funding compared to last year, district leadership said Monday night.
In a presentation to the NPS Board of Education Monday, NPS Chief Financial Officer Brenda Burkett said that the district has received updated notice from the state on this yearâs aid allocation. The district first receives notices in July, then gets revised information each January.
This Januaryâs notice shows that while the district originally projected a per-student funding drop of $114 in July, NPS will actually see a drop of $200 per student compared to last yearâs funding.
