Schmitz: local schools not skimping on student support Posted By: adminknia September 1, 2009 @ 4:57 am Today's Local News Tweet Share Email A local lawmaker says despite an economic recession, area schools aren’t skimping on student support. Fairfield State Senator Becky Schmitz says statistics show an increase in per-student funding across the board at local schools. She says in the last three years, total per-student funding has increased by at least 14-percent among area schools. Schmitz says these increases has much to do with bipartisan support for education in the legislature.
