Most of the funding for K–12 education comes from the state.
In 2018–19, California public schools received a total of $97.2 billion in funding from three sources: the state (58%), property taxes and other local sources (32%), and the federal government (9%). These shares vary across school districts. Of the 6.2 million K–12 students in California, about nine out of ten attend one of the nearly 9,000 regular schools in 1,026 school districts while the other 11% of students attend about 1,228 charter schools—which are publicly funded but not subject to some state regulations. More than half of public school students are economically disadvantaged, and about a quarter are English Learners.

Known as House Bill 3, the legislation significantly increases state funding for public education and distributes it more equitably, promising to vastly improve early childhood education, reward exceptional teachers, increase support for college and career readiness, and direct highly effective teachers toward the classrooms that need them most.
