MOLINE, Ill — Illinois schools will be getting a bump in their revenue, as funding from the passage of the Evidence-Based Funding for Student Success Act, otherwise known as the "Invest in Kids Act," becomes available in fiscal year 2024.
According to the Illinois Board of Education, more than $300 million in new funding will be available for schools across the state. State Sen. Mike Halpin, D-Rock Island, said that $4 million of that will be made available to schools in western Illinois.
