Read this lede from yesterday’s statewide AP story about education funding (Story link from WCCO). I read this in the Hibbing Daily Tribune.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — There’s no band anymore at Nashwauk-Keewatin Schools. Art and music are history, too. Almost a quarter of the teachers were laid off to fix a deficit.
This state of affairs has prompted the topic of my column for this week. I will take some of the ideas about education funding, innovation and school consolidation I often discuss here and put them in front of the paper and ink readers of the newspaper. I’ll be taking some chances with the local political structure. Tune in Sunday for more.
