Today, Manar falsely claims:
“It would pay greater attention to factors such as special education and bilingual needs and the percentage of local students living in poverty. These factors tend to either drive up local costs or hinder student achievement. The current system does little to address these issues. Under the new classroom funding plan, the state would target these areas.”
In fact, the Manar bill would cut special education by almost 1/3, eliminate the State law directing $9,000 for each special ed teacher, and instead put in place a Formula Special Education Block Grant which could be spent for ANY purpose.
