After being tardy by a staggering 100 days, the governor and legislators on Oct. 8 passed the 2010-2011 budget bill. After suffering $17 billion in cuts over the past two years, public education is still being decimated. This budget includes the suspension of the voter-approved minimum funding guarantee Proposition 98, which defers hundreds of millions in funding that our schools desperately need now. This will be especially hard felt in the classrooms as it is the life-line for basic education funding. However, while this budget is devastating, schools are targeted to get more than what was originally proposed in the governor's May Revision by about $300 per student, and schools will eventually get the deferred dollars back.
