Connecticut pays the full cost of #teacherpensions for districts, but doesn’t factor that into school funding. So students in some districts get less than others. equable.org/brief-connecticu… For example, @OrangeCTBOE gets more per pupil pension subsidies than nearby Ansonia—and produces better student outcomes. @KaraRochelleCT @Cabrera4CT
