As Capital Tonight has been reporting, the Rockefeller Institute has been tasked with revising New York state's 17-year-old Foundation Aid formula, which determines the amount of funding school districts receive.
The public policy think tank held hearings with stakeholders including district leaders, elected officials and experts across the state over the summer where some voiced concerns about the formula.
The Rockefeller Institute is reviewing the feedback and is set to present their final report on policy options on Dec. 1.
Arlen Benjamin-Gomez, executive director of Ed-Trust New York, a statewide non-profit organization focused on education equity, joined Capital Tonight to discuss potential changes to Foundation Aid.
