2. NYSUT is supporting the Fund our Future initiative to increase funding for education. The campaign will include billboards, mass transit ads and digital advertisements that will play across a variety of social media platforms. Click here for more information
3. Budget looks like it’s increasing Ed. Funding, but it is decreasing state spending and relying on increased federal funding. Critics say this bodes poorly for the future when there is no or less federal funding. Click here for article
4. Under Governor Cuomo’s proposed budget, Seaford would see an increase in state education aid, which accounts for approximately 18% of Seaford’s budget.
