Public school superintendents warned Thursday during a conference in Williamsport that a “flat funding” model of state aid to districts won’t meet educational needs and will likely result in tax increases and fewer services now and in the future.
Superintendents spoke at the PA Schools Work Campaign Regional press conference at the district service center.
“We’re here to voice the urgency for an increased provision of state aid to avoid what could very well become a ‘funding cliff’ in the future with an ever-widening gap between the local and state share of public school district funding,” said Dr. Timothy Bowers, superintendent of Williamsport Area School District.
