5 At the same time, Illinois has the most regressive funding system in the country. Funding gaps between the highest and lowest poverty districts by state 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% -15% -20% -25% OH MN SD DE TN IN KY CA MA LA NJ GA OK UT WI OR WV MS WA CT AR FL NM ND VT SC KS CO VA AZ AL NH NE ME WY RI ID MO MT IA NC MI MD TX PA NY IL Spending money inequitably fails to improve state performance, meaning all students lose Reading this figure: In Ohio, the highest poverty districts receive 22 percent more in state and local funds per student than the lowest poverty districts (not adjusted for additional needs of low-income students). In states shaded in green, the highest poverty districts receive at least 5 percent more in state and local funds per student than the lowest poverty districts; in states shaded in red, they receive at least 5 percent less. Grey shading indicates similar levels of funding for the highest and lowest poverty districts. Note: Hawaii was excluded from the within-state analysis because it is one district. Alaska and Nevada are also excluded because their student populations are heavily concentrated in certain districts and could not be broken into quartiles. Because so many of New York s students are concentrated in New York City, we sorted that state into two halves, as opposed to four quartiles. 5
6 Research shows at-risk students have greater needs that require additional resources. In general, research shows low-income students have greater social, emotional, and physical needs than do other students Addressing these needs requires additional resources and services to ensure students success In Illinois, these students are actually funded less than other students because of our reliance on local property taxes 6
7 Dollars per pupil, 2014 We spend less on low-income students than we do on non-low-income students.

11 But other states with a low share of state funding are still more equitable than Illinois. States that cover less than 45% share of total funding (without fed funds) (IL = 38%) 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% -15% -20% -25% OH MN SD DE TN IN KY CA MA LA NJ GA OK UT WI OR WV MS WA CT AR FL NM ND VT SC KS CO VA AZ AL NH NE ME WY RI ID MO MT IA NC MI MD TX PA NY IL Reading this figure: In Ohio, the highest poverty districts receive 22 percent more in state and local funds per student than the lowest poverty districts (not adjusted for additional needs of low-income students).

12 Illinois state funding formula does not target enough dollars based on need. Funding source % of state funding % low income (DHS) District property wealth (EAV) General State Aid: Formula Grant 40% General State Aid: Poverty Grant 26% Mandated categoricals 26% All other categoricals 7% Chicago block grants * 7% Other Funds 1% Source: Illinois State Board of Education Budget, Included in formula Variable across category Not included in formula 12
13 An Ineffective Formula: Illinois Current Funding System 13
14 In Illinois, no education grants consider both a district s local resources and concentration of low-income students. GSA Formula Grant GSA Poverty Grant Mandated Categoricals Other Categoricals Chicago Block Grant The largest source for state education funding in Illinois. Distributes dollars to districts based on their local resources. Supplemental funding distributed at a flat, per-pupil rate based on a district s concentration of low-income students. Funding for special education, transportation, free/reduced price lunch and breakfast. Does not consider a districts local resources or concentration of low-income students. Other grants for assessments, early childhood education, gifted education, bilingual education, advanced placement, etc. Does not consider a districts local resources or concentration of low-income students. A certain percentage of grants that is designated for Chicago Public Schools because of it s size and unique needs. Does not consider Chicago s local resources or concentration of low-income students. 14
15 Our largest education funding stream does not consider student needs The largest amount of state funding for education is the General State Aid Formula Grant. (General State Aid includes this grant and the Supplemental Poverty Grant.) The formula grant is based on a concept called the Foundation Level, a base level of funding to educate an Illinois student. Since 2010, the Illinois General Assembly has set a Foundation Level of $6,119 per student. The formula grant determines a district s local resources, based on local property wealth and the district type (Unit, Elementary, High School). The state pays the difference between the district s local resources and the Foundation Level. If a district s local resources are within 93% and 175% of the Foundation Level, an Alternate Grant is used to determine state funding. If a district s local resources are above 175% of the Foundation Level, the district receives a Flat Grant ($218 per pupil). 15
16 The Foundation Formula is not working. GSA s Foundation level represents a single definition of adequate funding for every student in the state and does not consider the costs of educating students with additional needs. Even if a single definition of adequacy was appropriate, $6119 is far below the Education Funding Advisory Board s recommended Foundation Level of $8767. And Illinois is not currently funding schools at $6,119. For the past 5 year, budget cuts have led Illinois to pro-rate, or fund districts at 89% of their claim. Illinois needs a definition of adequacy based on the unique needs of students and districts, and an approach to funding adequately. 16

21 Other funding streams have issues, as well. The poverty grant (GSA Supplemental) does not consider districts local resources and its curve underfunds districts with between 50% and 80% low-income Mandated Categoricals funding rises in-line with GSA and do not (for the most part) consider local resources The Chicago block grant does not reflect the current demographics of the state and city 21
22 Weighted Funding Formula 22
23 Weighted funding formulas resolve issues with the current formula. Many states have weighted funding formulae including: MA, NJ, RI, CA, and MD SB1 is simply a version of this type of formula A weighted funding formula provides a foundation level for each district (i.e. a base funding level * weights for a district) Mechanics of formula are similar to our current system, but the state pays the difference between the weighted foundation level and local resources. Weights can be used to develop an approach to adequacy that incorporates need. This can be compared to total spend to provide more accurate pictures of adequate spending. 23
24 Example: Proposed Weights for SB1 Student Need Poverty Special Education (Students who need exceptional levels of service will be funded separately) English Language Learning Additional Weight (above base amount) 25 percent to 75 percent per student based upon concentration of poverty (See next slide for further explanation) 100 percent 20 percent K-8 Gifted and Talented 1 percent High School Outcomes: AP, Dual-credit courses High School Outcomes: Career Pathways Completers Transportation 2 percent 3 percent 6 12 percent (range is based upon density/square mile and type of transportation) Source: Illinois School Funding Reform Act 24
25 Background on Low-Income Weight Many states use a sliding scale for low-income weights, which factors in a district s concentration of poverty. Most states use Free/Reduced Lunch as a proxy for Income, while Illinois currently uses the percent of students qualifying for services from the Department of Human Services. SB16 instead calls for using 185% of poverty line as the measure. [NOTE: That equates to FRL, but mechanism may need to be adjusted as FRL becomes universal in some districts.] State Illinois (SB1) California Colorado New Jersey Proxy for Lowincome 200% of the poverty line Free/Reduced Lunch Free/Reduced Lunch Free/Reduced Lunch Additional Weight (above base amount) Sliding scale:.25 for districts with less than 30 percent low-income concentration.75 for districts above 94 percent low-income concentration.2 for low-income students in districts with less than a 55% concentration of low income students.7 for low-income students in districts with a 55% or greater concentration of low income students Sliding Scale:.2 for districts with a lower concentration of FRL than the state average.2 +.4*(District s percent FRL-State s average percent FRL) for districts with low-income concentrations that are greater than the state average this weight is capped at.4 Sliding scale:.47 for districts with less than 20 percent low-income concentration.57 for districts with 60 percent or higher low-income concentration 25
26 Background on ELL Weight Most states with ELL weights have special combination formulas for ELLs that are also low-income. This means that ELL weights are not purely additive, but rather, are factored into low-income weights The ELL weight would be added to low-income weights under SB16, so districts would receive fully weighted resources for their low-income ELL students State Illinois (SB1) California Colorado New Jersey New Mexico Additional Weight (above base amount).2 For students that are both ELL and low-income, weights will be added together. This will range from.45 to for ELL students in districts with less than a 55% concentration of low income students.7 for ELL students in districts with a 55% or greater concentration of low income students (ELLs do not qualify for an additional low-income weight, so this weight should be seen as a combination weight) Sliding Scale:.2 for districts with a lower concentration of ELLs than the state average.2 +.8*(District s percent FRL-State s average percent FRL) for districts with low-income concentrations that are greater than the state average (this weight is capped at.4) Students that are both ELL and low-income receive both weights.5 Students that are both LEP and low-income receive a combination weight of the district s low-income concentration weight. This ranges from.6 to.7..5 for full time enrollment students 26
27 Background on Special Education Weight The weight for special education was based on current state expenditures on special education Weights are inline with national norms, though there is reasonable conversation to be had regarding weights by special education type SB1 provides special education funding for students with exceptional needs outside the weighting 27
