The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 878, aims to amend section 10-262f of the general statutes to increase the foundation amount for the education cost sharing grant formula. This change is intended to enhance funding for education by adjusting the baseline amount that determines the distribution of state education funds to local school districts.

The bill does not specify the exact amount of the increase or provide details on how this adjustment will impact the overall education funding landscape. However, the primary focus is on ensuring that the foundation amount is raised, which could lead to more equitable funding across various districts and potentially improve educational resources and opportunities for students.
