州长 Kay Ivey 宣布 2700 万美元公立学校拨款：奥本大学获 2200 万美元
阿拉巴马州州长 Kay Ivey 10 月 21 日在 Montgomery 宣布，向公立学校与学院管理局（PSCA）项目拨款 2700 万美元，用于各校的基建支出。其中奥本大学将获得 2200 万美元，新成立的阿拉巴马医疗科学学校（Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences）获得 500 万美元。Ivey 在公立学校与学院管理局当天的会议上正式批准了这两笔拨款。
州长表示，PSCA 资金让州政府得以对培养下一代的课堂进行「代际性投资」，「让年轻人获得最好的成功机会，没有比这更重要的任务」。她特别提到，自己很自豪能向母校奥本大学以及阿拉巴马医疗科学学校拨款，帮助学生们迎接有前景的未来。
这笔资金来自 2020 年债券发行后累积的利息。州长办公室称，在 Ivey 任内已累计发放超过 19 亿美元的 PSCA 资金。本次拨款属于资本性支出，旨在改善学校的基础设施与教学条件；阿拉巴马医疗科学学校是该州新设立的一所特色学校，500 万美元拨款将用于其校园建设。（GSM 据阿拉巴马州州长办公室报道）
Gov. Kay Ivey Announces $27 Million for Public School Projects: Auburn University to Receive $22 Million
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey announced on Oct. 21 in Montgomery that $27 million has been awarded to Public School and College Authority (PSCA) projects for capital spending at schools across the state. Auburn University will receive $22 million, and the newly established Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences will receive $5 million. Ivey formally approved the two awards at the PSCA's meeting the same day.
The governor said PSCA funding lets the state make a "generational investment" in the classrooms that educate the next generation, adding that there is no more important task than giving young people the best chance to succeed. She said she was especially proud to direct funding to Auburn University, her alma mater, and to the Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences.
The money comes from interest accumulated since a 2020 bond issue. The governor's office said more than $1.9 billion in PSCA funding has been awarded during Ivey's tenure. The Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences is a newly created specialty school, and its $5 million award will go toward campus construction.
