1. SB 909 Only viable exceptions that remain are Special Education and Pension To eliminate these two exceptions with no plan to fund at the state level increases in a compounded fashion disparate education finance outcomes To eliminate the Act 1 rate and subject LEA’s to full referenda is the same as direct action/legislation to defund student programs and opportunity District’s like Solanco cannot ‘catch’ our Lancaster County Suburban peers now....given recent state past history for Funds to Solanco.....under Senate Bill 909 Solanco will immediately need to choose what programs to erode or eliminate.....
