Minnesota school finance is complex and hard to understand.  The Minnesota Association of School Business Officials (MASBO) developed a short informational video to provide a high level explanation of how it works.  Click here to view the video. 

MASBO also created a video that gives an overview of how special education services are funded in Minnesota schools, the impact of inadequate funding, and why special education services must be fully funded.  Click here to view the video.
