Afterschool and State Education Finance Formulas: A Primer for Statewide Afterschool Networks

This strategy brief explores the challenges and potential opportunities of incorporating funding for afterschool programs into state education finance formulas. The primer lays out the "basics" of state education finance formulas and how they vary across the states, discusses the current educational context, and provides some considerations for determining if this strategy might make sense in a state - either in response to a legal challenge to the financing structure in a given state, or as part of a distinct effort to modify a state's finance formula.
