MADISON, WI (WRN) – Governor Tony Evers announces Wisconsin K-12 schools will receive another 90 million dollars, from Wisconsin’s share of the American Rescue Plan Act.
Evers, who is up for reelection in November, announced the funding on Tuesday as K-12 districts across Wisconsin prepare for fall classes.
All the money will be distributed on a per pupil basis, amounting to an additional $91.15 per student.
State Representative Mark Born, the co-chair of the legislature’s Joint Finance Committee, characterized Evers announcement as a drop in the bucket compared to funding districts already have.
