Washington School Districts Get Sales Tax Relief, Early Learning Programs Face Changes: A Mixed Budget for Education

Washington school districts receive a significant boost with the passage of a new sales tax exemption, saving them from substantial costs incurred due to the expanded sales tax on services. However, early learning programs face cost-cutting measures, including a shift in child care subsidies and reduced funding for certain programs.

The millionaires tax, if approved, could generate substantial revenue for schools and services starting in 2029.
