The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction has launched a new webpage dedicated to providing real-time updates, information, and resources related to federal funding for public schools and libraries across the state (dpi.wi.gov/policy-budget/federal-funding).
The tools available on the webpage include real-time updates on funding cuts at the federal level and an interactive map that enables the public to view district-specific data on the impact of federal funding. This map provides detailed breakdowns from the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, showing the total amount of federal funds received, the number of full-time educators supported by U.S. Department of Education funding, and the percentage of federal funding relative to each district’s revenue limit.
Resources also include personalized one-page flyers for each Wisconsin district. These flyers, which can be accessed alphabetically at the bottom of the webpage, highlight the effects of federal funding on each Wisconsin school district.
For more information and to access the interactive map and district-specific flyers, visit the DPI’s “Tracking Federal Funding Cuts: The Effect on Wisconsin” webpage at dpi.wi.gov/policy-budget/federal-funding.
