Lawmakers on the budget-writing Joint Finance Committee approved nearly $5 million for new technology in schools today, months after public school superintendents raised an alarm over aging computers and a lack of technology resources.
Yes, it's 1/2 of the $10 million that our statewide superintendents estimate is needed - but it's clear evidence that at least some lawmakers read the NJ story illustrating the Gov.'s raiding of education funding that has begun to cripple some of our sister districts in the state.
Markell's Office of Management and Budget Director Ann Visalli had this to say: "funding approved today is 'not the amount they wanted, but it's progress.'"
That coughing sound you hear? It's someone choking in Dover.

I believe that children are currently overwhelmed with studying. They have no spare time for the rest and hobbies. Thus, I make up such time by myself with the help of online homework help services.
