School Funding Transparency
School Aid
School Aid information for any school district is available for viewing on the NYS Budget website. The most current data reflects the 2022-23 School Year.
From the 2018-19 school year through the 2022-23 school year, Education Law §3614 required school districts to each year submit a detailed statement of the total funding allocation for the upcoming school budget year to the NYSED commissioner. Education Law §3614 was repealed effective June 30, 2023, which eliminated this reporting requirement. Below are the Greater Johnstown SD submissions from that time period.
