If the threat of the Chinese Wuhan Virus is to be taken seriously enough that government schools had to be closed for the rest of the year it might be time to re-think public education operating out of huge child and administrator warehouses.
This is not the sort of thing you expect from your Democrat-majority legislature, but we’re fans of giving credit when it is due. And it is due. HB1460 is a budget bill that incorporates line item detail at the local level. The Committee panned it 10-8, but the full House did something amazing.
