This report looks at Georgia's Equalization Grant, which was introduced as part of the Quality Basic Education Act in 1985 and first funded in 1987. It examines the basics of the grant calculation, as well as discusses the grant’s ability to close the funding gap between low and high property wealth districts and how reliant these school districts have been on the equalization grant. Legislative changes to the equalization grant calculation and their effect on funding levels also are outlined.
