To help Vermonters understand school funding, Vermont Public has created an engaging video and glossary explaining how Vermont pays for schools. This resource covers essential concepts like school property taxes, local funding, and terms related to education finance. By breaking down complex topics, the video helps viewers see how tax dollars are allocated and understand their role in supporting schools across the state. Watch the video here to learn more about Vermont’s unique education finance system: Vermont Public’s video on school funding.

This resource is especially helpful as Maple Run begins building the Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26) school budget.
