TO EXPRESS THE BELIEF OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES THAT FUNDS RECENTLY DETERMINED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO BE UNNECESSARY FOR TEACHER AND PRINCIPAL SPECIALISTS UNDER THE EDUCATION ACCOUNTABILITY ACT SHOULD BE USED TO RESTORE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT POSSIBLE LOCAL SCHOOL INNOVATION FUNDING UNDER THE EDUCATION IMPROVEMENT ACT.
Whereas, the Department of Education has recently determined that it does not require as much funding as previously thought necessary for teacher and principal specialists under the Education Accountability Act; and
Whereas, in this difficult budget year, full funding for local school innovation under the Education Improvement Act has been very hard to secure; and
Whereas, the House of Representatives believes that the best use of those unrequired funds is to restore local school innovation funds to the fullest extent possible. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the House of Representatives expresses its belief that funds recently determined by the Department of Education to be unnecessary for teacher and principal specialists under the Education Accountability Act should be used to restore to the fullest extent possible local school innovation funding under the Education Improvement Act.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Governor and the Senate Finance Committee.
