coronavirus: Officials doubt schools can reopen safely if they must cut budgets
Leaders of the state’s 1,000 school districts generally have appreciated Thurmond’s supportive tone, but the substance of Thursday’s message was less encouraging. The most unwelcome note, pertaining to funding, was no surprise. As matters stand, most school systems in the state can look forward to less money for the approaching school year, Thurmond said, a result of plummeting state tax revenue due to the pandemic-related economic shutdown.
He added: “We hear you loud and clear. ... We agree with you that we cannot ask schools to do more with less.”In California, about 90% of education funding is from the state, with about 10% from the federal government. Although the state budget contains funding “guarantees” for schools, they can fluctuate with the health of the economy, which affects how much tax revenue the state collects.
