Education Funding

My HB 43 intends to push money directly to schools -- where parents and educators (a "community council") decide how to spend it. The bill passed committee unanimously and moves to the floor.

Community councils identify the most crucial needs of the school and, then, address some of those needs with this money and address the others with innovation, volunteerism and elbow-grease. This is one of the most exciting things we have going on in education today, and I'm excited to work on this issue.
