2026 RESC Alliance Legislative Priorities

Male Teacher with Students
Equitable Magnet School Funding
Increase Educator Diversity
Enhance Special Education
 

Support Equitable Magnet School Funding

Preserve the $12M RESC Magnet grant for FY27 with a focus on fully implementing the  four year phase in of the Student Centered Funding Model, which supports the 166 statewide RESC member districts and the 27 RESC-managed magnet schools.

Enhance Special Education

  • Amend PA 25-168 (sec 317) to include RESCs as a contractor for districts in the Special Education and Expansion Development (SEED) Grant.

    • Allowing RESCs to contract through SEED enables districts to provide specialized, high-intensity services that districts may not be able to deliver on their own. ​
