The Advocate - A KASB Podcast

Senate Passes Controversial Ed Bills, Both Receive Bipartisan Pushback

Kansas Association of School Boards Season 2025 Episode 5

Leah and Shannon discuss the Senate passing two bills, one a voucher and another stripping local control for BOEs, but neither with veto-proof majorities. They also talk about the House budget only including an additional $10 million for SPED. 

Next, the KASB Advocacy Team is anticipating the education funding task force holding its second meeting on what the next school funding formula should look like. That will be Monday, February 24 from 9 am to 12 pm. You can watch that by going to this link: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGnUWv2THZAiSnnk5BpcqTJovjNEsYqVB
