A fact from New York State School Tax Relief Program appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 28 December 2008 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
How does this tax relief program affect school budgets, and by extension, school facilities, programs, teachers' salaries, etc.? LordAmeth (talk) 14:47, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Directly, it does not. It offers a break to taxpayers by lessing the amount of taxes that must be paid. STAR pays the difference for the taxpayer, so in essence, it increases the percentage of a school budget that's made up of state aid. The total revenues of a school district budget does not change. Just the source changes a little bit. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk»16:55, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, ok. It just comes out of state tax revenue rather than local taxes. Thanks for taking the time to explain. Perhaps this should be included in the article. LordAmeth (talk) 21:04, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
