Education Op/Ed

Community Forum: Be brave, Little State, defend public education

Governor Phil Scott has provided his shock and aw-shucks proposal for rescuing taxpayers and claiming to improve education along the way. Finding renewed hubris with the “red wave” of new Republicans in the State House and Democrats running scared, Governor Scott is seizing the opportunity with a misguided overhaul of our public education system. It is time for Vermonters to defend our equitable, successful and essential public schools and local governance.
