New bill being proposed to redistribute funds for traditional schools
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. —
Central Florida school officials are concerned about a bill that would redistribute funds for traditional schools.
WFTV learned millions of dollars are being proposed for charter schools.
The Central Florida school districts that stand to lose the most are Orange and Polk Counties at $4.4 million each. Lake County is expected to lose $3 million.
WFTV learned that if SB-1852 becomes a law, 20 percent of the money used to maintain traditional school buildings in Central Florida would instead go to privately run charter schools
