Essential

Equal Distribution of School Funds

Idea Submission for The People's Money:
We should raise more awareness about how students attending schools in low income areas are not given the same opportunities as students in schools with more money. Thus urging equal distributions of funds and schools located in low income regions shouldn't receive less funds, due to that fact.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
Education should receive more funding because schools in low-income areas do not receive the same access to textbooks, desks, working chromebooks, and other resources that benefit a student's ability to learn. It helps present students of all backgrounds with equal opportunities.
Which groups does your idea focus on? Select all that apply
Youth (under 24)
