The Gov. has spoken and the legislators have affirmed it. This is another strong arm tactic to weaken local control and hurt students. Districts were not given a provision in epilogue language to utilize a match tax to raise funds. Therefore, the funding for transportation will either 1) have to pass at referendum, or 2) come from local funds that are traditionally used to support the classroom. Christina will be in a slightly better position than most district as our voters supported last year's referendum, but our neighboring districts across the state may feel this cut very deeply. Charter schools, too. No one is immune to this obvious assault on children!
