SK>No, it has not been repealed, and the remark that they are reducing
SK>class sizes in California by another party was news to me.
RM> It DID seem to fly in the face of everything I've been
RM> reading; doesn't mean it isn't happening, but makes me
RM> wonder.....
SK>Since the time I last wrote to you on this issue, it has come to my
SK>attention that apparently Gov. Pete Wilson has suggested something about
SK>this....
SK>The governor has made some large lump sum ( was it $50 million? )
SK>available to schools. The schools can apply for a portion of this money,
SK>but it can ONLY be used to lower class size. I read something about some
SK>schools trying to decide whether the additional money necessary for
SK>hiring more teachers to lower the class size was going to fall within the
SK>available funding.
SK>As I hear more about this, I'll try to let you know.
I'm happy to hear it; I hope it is used wisely...
