state budget

On July 29, when Governor Maura Healey signed the budget for Fiscal Year 2025, it finalized a process allocating $57.8 billion in funding for the commonwealth and state-funded organizations, including millions for educational efforts across the state.

The House version of the state budget does not include funding promised in the Student Opportunity Act for the second year in a row, leaving educators to wonder when the $1.5 billion signed by the governor in 2019 will come to fruition.
