School budgets?

How does this tax relief program affect school budgets, and by extension, school facilities, programs, teachers' salaries, etc.? LordAmeth (talk) 14:47, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Directly, it does not. It offers a break to taxpayers by lessing the amount of taxes that must be paid. STAR pays the difference for the taxpayer, so in essence, it increases the percentage of a school budget that's made up of state aid. The total revenues of a school district budget does not change. Just the source changes a little bit. upstate NYer 16:55, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Oh, ok. It just comes out of state tax revenue rather than local taxes. Thanks for taking the time to explain. Perhaps this should be included in the article. LordAmeth (talk) 21:04, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just did. Thanks for that tip; I kind of never explained the "greater point" of the whole program. upstate NYer 22:02, 1 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
