California K-12 schools 'fare very well' in Gov. Gavin Newsom's May revise to the state's budget and Stockton Unified should think long-term when passing their upcoming spending plan, according to an education fiscal expert. Under Newsom's revised budget, California school districts and community colleges would receive $106.8 billion — the same sticker-price as last year and about $4 billion less than the record education budget in 2021, which included COVID-19 money. "As we prepare for more risk and uncertainties ahead, it's critical that we keep the state on a solid footing to protect Californians and our progress in remaking the future for our state,' Newsom said in his May Revise announcement May 12.
