Welcome to the Association for Equity in Funding (AEF)

The Association for Equity in Funding (AEF) is a group of Wisconsin school districts that seeks financial equity in the state system of school financing. The members include urban districts such as Green Bay and Beloit, as well as small, rural districts like Algoma, Cornell, Seneca, and Tigerton.

The two issues that brought this group together and have kept it together have been the wide differences in the amount school districts have been able to invest in the education of their children and the even wider differences in the property tax burden to pay for that investment.

This website contains information about these and other issues impacting the distribution of state K-12 fiscal resources and their impacts on local school districts.  In addition, analyses of existing state school finance policies and the positions AEF promotes to obtain greater fairness for taxpayers and students, alike, can be found here.  Newsletters addressing current issues are available on this site along with other resoueces.  Members of the association along with others are invited to review these materials.  The mission of AEF includes heightening awareness of the issues and providing resources to school administrators, school board members, legislators and other state policy makers, and to the general public, and, as a result, anyone is welcome to review and use the materials posted here. 

Questions about the organization, its mission, becoming a member, or positions held by the association may be addressed to the Executive Director or any of the members of the Steering Committee.  Their contact information can be found on this website in the Contacts tab.
