The passage of the education bill, H. 454, in the General Assembly, and presumably gaining the governor’s signature into law, marks the start of efforts to transform Vermont’s education system into one that recognizes the incredible demographic changes over the past four decades, and to correct the gradual but significant drift to a system where students in next-door towns have very unequal learning experiences and opportunities.
