Westchester County – Westchester Assemblymembers Amy Paulin (D-88), Gary Pretlow (D-89) Nader Sayegh (D-90), Steve Otis (D-91), MaryJane Shimsky (D-92), Chris Burdick (D-93), and Dana Levenberg (D-95) announce that they have issued a letter to the Rockefeller Institute for consideration in the Institute’s Foundation Aid Study.

Through this year’s New York State Budget the Rockefeller Institute was directed to conduct a study to assess the State’s Foundation Aid education funding formula and discuss potential modifications to the formula.

As part of the study, researchers at the Rockefeller Institute have been collecting feedback from various stakeholders. The attached letter outlines a set of ten recommendations that the Assembly Members feel are essential to create a funding formula which brings strong educational outcomes for all of Westchester’s children.
