The worry that schools may be forced to close because of a lack of school funding from the state finally seems to be over.
Legislative leaders say they have come to an agreement to change the way schools are funded in the state. The particular details of just how the House and Senate were able to come together are still not known. And those details might even be unknown to the Governor who was not part of the negations between the leaders.
Rauner said on Thursday he wouldn’t comment too much through the media as to how they leaders should find compromise.
The leaders are now scheduled to return to the Capitol on Sunday with a vote scheduled on funding reforms for Monday.
