MADISON - Gov. Scott Walker is prepared to spend millions more on rural schools, but some education officials say it won't be enough for some struggling districts.
State aid has dropped to schools in recent years, including a $1.2 billion cut four years ago. The pain has been worse in some rural districts that face challenges such as increased transportation costs.
Walker said last week his budget will include a $19 million increase to help with that and also to improve broadband access.
