Education News: Pennsylvania’s legislature has two bills traveling through the House and the Senate, both aiming to repair education funding for students with special needs. The Education Funding Formula Commission has recommended, reports Jeff Frantz on PennLive, that schools be reimbursed the actual costs of teaching special needs children.

If it has less it is overfunded.
