State funded aid to education

The Manchester Union Leader has a story about the state school funding situation here. I read t the article, and the only part that made sense to me was the $914 million part. That's a lot of money, I wonder where it is coming from. Is the state planning to skim that much money off the town property taxes for redistribution? There was talk about a new formula for sharing the money but I don't know just what it means. I was unable to determine from the article whether my town would be a winner or a looser.
