The Oshkosh school district is expected to get an additional $616,000 in state funding, after Governor Evers used his veto pen to put nearly $90 million toward public schools.
Sue Schnorr is the district’s business services director. She says the budget they passed for the district was based on the proposal from Majority Republicans on the Legislature’s budget committee. She says administrators and the school board will have to decide how to use the extra money.
Because of the way the veto worked, Schnorr says they’ll get all of the additional funding in the next school year. She believes they’ll have to figure out how to spread that out over the two-year state budget.
