Dateline Minnesota: Gov. Pawlentry agrees Schools need more money: Downplays expectation for all day kindergarten funding; $160 Million Price tag

Click on the post for the story from Minnesota on the Governors proposal to increase school funding. He has also downplayed expectations for mandated full day kindergarten funding by saying that the price tag of $160 million is not the best bang for the buck.

It is interesting to see that Minnesota cannot afford full day kindergarten---o.k., I will tease my relatives there that they should move to Evansville where we are oh so much richer than those poor Minnesota folks. I will let you know how they respond.

Stay tuned.

I have reposted the speech from Mr. Bill Connors entitled "Half-Day Kindergarten, the Low Cost Option." This is as a courtesy for all my Minnesota friends that might be tuning in. Enjoy.
