While we won't be sharing our final plans today, there are three scenarios that have been the focus of our academic task force work, which as we have learned over the last several months, are the options just about every school district in the country is evaluating.

Rep. Jim Ward is running to flip SD 28. He’s served on the Wichita School Board and the Wichita City Council. As a state rep, he introduced a bill that would have expanded Medicaid to 150,000 Kansans in need of health coverage: everydistrict.us/candidates/…

Majority Leader Rep. Dan Hawkins: The Governor needs to be transparent Also Rep. Hawkins: We cannot allow the public to know how we vote in committees or on amendments. Bummed that the Kansas House decided to continue to ban the public from recording their votes. #ksleg

The objections chairman Mr. Rucker refused to recuse himself from my objection to Kobach even though he oversaw the election I objected to and has donated ~$8,000 to Kobach’s campaigns. I was denied due process. #ksleg #ksgov #Corruption

In the last session, I was a leader working to restore Teacher Due Process. I co-signed the bill that would have put it through. Difficulty in the legislature and now the courts will not stop us. Send me back to properly represent educators and our students.

FY2009 was the last year K-12 funding was constitutional. Taking inflation into consideration, over the past decade the state has shorted KS public education by $5.67 BILLION! #ksed #ksleg
