Alaska lawmakers propose House Bill 374 to increase public school funding by $158.6 million, raising the base student allocation to $7,290 per student. The bill comes after last years funding boost, following a contentious battle with the governor. Supporters, including students, parents, teachers, and superintendents, testified before the House Education Committee, highlighting cuts to programs, larger class sizes, and potential school closures. With higher oil prices on the horizon, House leaders are considering even more school spending.
