The Mississippi Lottery’s March transfer of $10,828,149.36 to the state brings the total transfer
for Fiscal Year 2025 to $85,200,993.40
Each fiscal year, the first $80 million in net proceeds is allocated to roads and bridges, with any
proceeds exceeding $80 million directed to the Education Enhancement Fund. After surpassing
the $80 million threshold for roads and bridges, the EEF received $5,200,933.40 with the March
transfer and will continue to receive the full Lottery transfer to the state through the June
transfer, marking the conclusion of Fiscal Year 2025.
The EEF is used for early learning collaboratives, early learning collaborative coaches, math
coaches, the Teacher Supply Fund, upgrading the Mississippi Student Information System, and
career and technical education grants.
All numbers are contingent on a financial audit.
