Stop Gov. Whitmer From Cutting Charter School Funding

Governor Whitmer used her power to veto the originally proposed budget increase to the foundational allowance for charter school students, and charter school students alone.

This targeted attack on our kids, our educators and our classrooms undermines our voices, our work and the success we drive every day for Michigan learners – and clearly puts the needs of the bureaucracy above the needs of 150,000+ students who attend charter schools across the state.

Tell the Governor and your lawmakers that your funding isn’t up for grabs – today, or any other day.

As a charter school supporter, I am disappointed that the Governor vetoed the anticipated increase in per pupil funding for only charter schools. All children deserve equitable funding, regardless of the type of school they attend. To single out public charter school students and eliminate their increase in funding, while all other public schools get a $240 per student increase, is simply unacceptable. Please support SB 555 and HB 5078 to restore the foundation allowance for charter public schools and fund them the same as any other public school in Michigan.

School funding must put the needs of our children first, not the interests of politicians and bureaucracy!
