How Georgia funds schools

Quality Basic Education (QBE)

Georgia funds schools through the Quality Basic Education (QBE) formula: a base per-student amount multiplied by program weights for categories such as kindergarten, early intervention, special education and gifted, so funding follows the program a student is in rather than a flat per-pupil grant. QBE still has no permanent poverty or “opportunity” weight; proposals to add one were debated in 2025 but not enacted.

Statewide, Georgia public schools draw about 41.2% of revenue from the state, 51.8% local and 7.0% federal (NEA, Rankings & Estimates 2026). Current figures are published by the Georgia Department of Education.
