Some good news

The Governor announced that we may see more money for all public education (pre-K to college) compared to his initial budget. The $5.25 billion for the next biennium for K-12 education that he talked about yesterday translates into 7-8 million dollars in additional funding for the Hillsboro public schools. This means no further increases in class sizes and perhaps enough funds to spend wisely on restoring a few of the things that were cut in the past three years. This is still not enough for quality education for the long term, but at least it is a step in the right direction.
