It's necessary but not enough to increase ed funding. How money is spent matters! Legislation must leverage every tool & utilize every best practice to close achievement & skills gaps that cost students opps to change the trajectory of their lives. #FBRC bit.ly/2k885GY

MA's new ed funding bill represents a strong foundation for implementing #FBRC findings, yet we’ll continue to push for improvements that strengthen focus on college and workforce readiness. Our Executive Director discusses with Michael Jonas: bit.ly/2mzCVJA #mapoli

2.Achievement gaps are an urgent challenge – the $1.5 billion of add’l funding in the Student Opportunity Act must be fully leveraged to close gaps. State & local officials must set targets for improvement, regularly report on progress and be held accountable for results.

Yes, the school funding reform bill gets it ā€œmostly rightā€ but it lacks support for programs that improve student readiness for college & workforce opportunities. The Senate must adopt amendments that provide sustainable funding for early college & career pathways programs

The restoration of accountability language is a bottom line. A final bill should: ensure that $ is wisely spent & increase the focus on college & career readiness. #FBRC #maedu Education funding: The House must repair the Senate’s damage bostonglobe.com/opinion/editor… via The Boston Globe

.HENRY M. THOMAS III & Jennifer Davis Carey have it right: "But without state oversight, we risk spending millions of dollars on the same practices that have failed too many of our young people for years." bit.ly/2pJ1SDQ

In keeping with my campaign promise, my Administration is announcing a plan to give working and middle class families breathing room as they prepare to resume federal student loan payments in January 2023. I'll have more details this afternoon.
