Vermont Education Reform Takes New Turn
from Montpelier News Today | 2 Min New | The Daily News Now!
Vermont’s Senate just passed a bold new education reform bill designed to tackle soaring school spending — ditching last year’s controversial district mergers in favor of voluntary partnerships, new state aid for school construction, and a tax on second homes. While supporters hail it as a major step forward, critics question whether it’ll truly cut costs or boost learning — especially since the biggest funding overhaul won’t happen until 2029. Meanwhile, the state plans to divert $100 million from other programs to ease property taxes, potentially costing nearly half a billion over four years. The bill now heads back to the House for final approval. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
