Summary:
Senate Bill 743, the "Education Equalization Endowment Act," aims to address school funding disparities in California by creating an education endowment. The bill proposes to use a portion of the state's general fund surplus to provide additional funding for non-basic aid districts, which typically receive less per-pupil funding than those in high-property-tax (basic aid) districts. The goal is to close the gap in per-pupil spending and create a more equitable system where all students, regardless of their location, have access to similar resources.
