Amy Oliver Show: K-12 Legislative Highlights Reveal Missed Opportunities

Rep. Kevin Priola discusses attempts in the last legislative session to change the school funding system, increase transparency, and reward great teachers.

On the second hour of the May 21 Amy Oliver Show, Rep. Kevin Priola (R-Brighton) discusses the recent legislative debate surrounding different aspects of the Student Success Act. He also highlights two of his K-12 proposals that were defeated: a change to count students for funding throughout the whole year rather than just in October, and a plan to reward great teachers who choose to work in struggling schools.
