On Thursday, February 5th several superintendents from AEA 10 spent the morning lobbying at the State Capitol for PK-12 education. School districts are very concerned about the current debate regarding state supplemental aid funding increases as well as the school calendar conversation that is taking place regarding the 2015-16 school year and beyond,
Below are two pictures from the experience. I was pleased to get to spend some time visiting with Matthew Voss, a junior at Benton Community. Matthew is serving as a Senate Page during this session of the legislature. I also had an opportunity to spend some time visiting with Senator Kapucian in the Senate Chamber.
Please consider your role as a district stakeholder in advocating for PK-12 education!
