Funding

How Georgia funds schools

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.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for State Specialty Schools Ii- Atlanta Heights Charter School are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.
