Westborough's state education aid would increase by $1,121,051 next year under Gov. Deval Patrick's fiscal 2014 budget plan, the Patrick-Murray administration said today.
In addition, the budget proposal would move 53 students on Westborough's early education wait list "into high-quality early education programs," administration officials said in a press release.
Westborough also would get a $412,143 increase in state transportation aid next year, the press release says.
The figures are on new online maps showing "in real terms, what investing in growth and opportunity will mean for their communities," the release says.
