MCSD superintendent explains impact of Inspire Act
SUMMARY: The new Inspire Act funding formula in Mississippi aims to improve student learning by allocating funding based on enrollment rather than attendance. This new method will provide more financial assistance to public school districts, especially during low attendance months. The formula will give extra funding for students in poverty, gifted programs, special needs, and ESL programs. Families like Dennis Holloway believe this funding will benefit students by providing resources like Chromebooks and books. The Monroe County School District is expected to receive an increase of about $60,000 in total funding, replacing the old Mississippi Adequate Education Program.
