Abstract
Description
A recent report from the Public Policy Lab, “State Policy, Local Impact: How Policy Choices Will Shape the Financial Future of Pennsylvania School Districts,” forecasts the fiscal future for all 500 school districts in PA for the period 2019-20 through 2025-26. The report reviews the impacts of the pandemic on school districts' finances and highlights key policy choices available to state policymakers. Across a wide range of possible policy choices, the report predicts a majority of districts will face persistent fiscal stress in the next five years; however, policy choices at the state level to balance state subsidies and mandates, including a controlled growth of charter school tuition increases, could help mitigate this outcome.
