HJ 241 Study; innovation in public education.
Introduced by: Flora D. Crittenden | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Study; Innovation in public education. This resolution would have established a joint subcommittee to study ways to promote innovation in the Commonwealth's public school system and to identify any barriers in the current system of public education that inhibit innovations, improvement, and reform. The joint subcommittee was asked to consider current statutes that support flexibility, existing mechanisms for obtaining waivers from certain state education regulations, recent national and state studies concerning innovation and flexibility in public education, and other issues as it deems appropriate. However, the resolution was passed by indefinitely in lieu of a letter from the Speaker to the House Education Committee to conduct the study.
