Minnesota School Finance: A Guide for Legislators.
Strom, Tim
Following a brief introduction discussing Minnesota's educational finance system, recent finance litigation, and public education system, this report discusses basic school finance terms and concepts. The next two sections review the state's property tax system and its general education revenue program, including aid and levy calculations. Subsequent sections describe funding mechanisms for school transportation; special education; community, early childhood, and adult education; and vocational-technical education. Also described are capital finance methods, miscellaneous funds for education, teacher retirement funding, tax relief aids, and the school district accounting system. (MLH)
