The purpose of the Commission is to

obtain broad public input regarding how 

the Federal government can increase 

educational opportunity by improving 

school funding equity. The Commission 

will also make recommendations for 

restructuring school finance systems to 

achieve equity in the distribution of 

educational resources and further

students at the lower end of the 

achievement gap. The Commission will 

examine the disparities in meaningful 

educational opportunities that give rise 

to the achievement gap, with a focus on 

systems of finance, and recommend 

appropriate ways in which Federal 

policies could address such disparities. 

The agenda for the Commission’s 

August 9, 2012 meeting will include 

review and deliberation of materials 

prepared by the writing teams for 

consideration in the draft report to the 

Secretary of the U.S. Department of 

Education (Secretary), summarizing the 

Commission’s findings and 

recommendations for appropriate ways 

in which Federal policies can improve 

equity in school finance. The 

Commission is also expected to discuss 

the timing and content of future 

Commission meetings, as well what 

further materials, if any, will be 

produced. Due to time constraints, there 

will not be a public comment period.
