The House version of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2007-2008 school aid budget. This appropriates $13.311 billion, compared to $13.093 billion, which was the FY 2006-2007 amount enrolled in 2006. This includes a $100 per pupil foundation grant increase to school districts, and an additional $100 per pupil for districts with an FY 2007-08 foundation of $7,669 or less. The minumum foundation grant would be $7,208. Note: As with all House Budgets, this one authorizes spending well in excess of projected revenues, and is based on the presumption of a substantial tax increase.
