West Virginia HB4847 amends the state's basic foundation program to adjust local shares for teacher and school personnel pay.

West Virginia HB4847 amends Section 18-9A-12 of the Code of West Virginia to adjust the basic foundation program for teacher and school personnel pay. The bill specifies that the allocated state aid share for a county is the basic foundation program minus the local share, plus the amount of property tax the county cannot collect due to errors or court proceedings. It also mandates that 20% of property tax dollars collected be retained by the county, with 10% of that amount designated for teacher and school personnel salaries and benefits.
