● We are calling for $500 million for the SDA in the FY25 budget to ensure continued work on current projects and the ability to begin new projects. #FundTheSDA Healthy Schools Now

$500 million does not cover all the need, which is closer to $7 billion, but will allow SDA to continue on identified projects, address emergent issues, and have funds available to purchase land for new school projects. #FundTheSDA Healthy Schools Now

Over 50 schools were identified in 2019 as in need of being replaced, but less than half are currently in any process of being permanently addressed because of lack of funding. #FundTheSDA Healthy Schools Now

The state has a legal and moral responsibility to fund the SDA, so that all children throughout our state can obtain a thorough and efficient education in buildings that are safe and healthy. #FundTheSDA Healthy Schools Now
