Because there was no reduction in the Residential Assessment Rate this year, the General Assembly has as much as $100 million more to invest in our schools through the School Finance Act.

Our kids need funding today.  They don't get do-overs. Increases in funding for mental health, special education, rural schools and other critical investments can add the counselors, individual attention and other supports that make a lasting difference in the lives of children.

Please make that difference. Support all amendments to the School Finance Act to add investments today that will last a lifetime. We can't afford not to.
