Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposed budget for 2022-2023 included $55 million in funding for STEM in nonpublic schools, including yeshivas and Jewish day schools. Teach NYS, which has steadily worked with government officials to increase STEM funding, reacted to the news with praise for the Governor’s commitment to fair funding for excellence in education for all students.
These funds will reimburse nonpublic schools for the salaries of qualified grades 3–12 STEM teachers as part of the STEM Teacher Reimbursement Program, a revolutionary step in the effort toward solving the tuition crisis.
