Christie at TEECS - 1 — A plan by Gov. Chris Christie, left, to overhaul the state’s school funding formula could lead to a significant increase in state aid to township schools.

Franklin Township schools stand to receive significantly more state aid if Gov. Chris Christie’s plan to revamp school funding becomes law.

Although exact figures are not yet available, the district could see somewhere between a 200 percent and 300 percent increase in the amount of state aid it receives.
