NewsJunky Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Larger class sizes and more control for local school districts are some of the things included in House bill 1130. At least they are working on finding some solutions to the budget crunch. I wonder how some of our teachers feel about this? http://www.gainesvilletimes.com/news/article/30658/ House bill 1130, sponsored by Jefferson Rep. Tommy Benton, allows school districts to increase class sizes and lifts state controls on how schools spend some of their state funding. The bill passed the House Education Committee on Thursday.

NewsJunky Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Lift NCLB for a few years if you want to see some insanely happy teachers I did hear that the President wants to shield the failing schools from any repercussions and he wants to reward those that show that they have made progress. I can't understand why he would even keep it if this is what he has in mind. I heard that on the news today. I think it has been an absolute failure. Link to post Share on other sites
