DescriptionCCJEF continued its extensive research on the unmet learning needs of Connecticut students, essential resource needs of the public schools if they are to be high-performing, and the condition of state and local funding of public school districts, magnet and other choice programs, and early childhood education. Such evidence added to the body of evidence supporting CCJEF's legal claims that the state is failing to adequately and equitably fund the schools, all to the harm and long-term detriment of tens of thousands of schoolchildren as well as the state's future workforce and economy. The information and research analyses were also disseminated via numerous public presentations at community and statewide forums and as print materials widely distributed across the state.
