Due to a deep concern on a blanket ban on masks, I have filed HB-164 that would allow public schools to determine their own mask policy.
We must ensure the safety of our students, teachers and staff as they return to school to help stop the spread of this deadly virus.

When a student fails, there are consequences. When a district failed, there were no consequences. Until HB 1842. I have no regrets and if presented the chance, I would do it again.

The House rules provides for committees to hold a formal meeting. While there are no public comments, anyone can submit written testimony that is distributed to members. You’re also more than welcomed to attend, which is why the location is posted.

Your voice was silent at the start of the session challenging Dutton not being reappointed House Public Ed Chair. And rumors are the primary reason was because Dutton was anti- voucher. But you were mute about this. Go back to sleep.

If your child is a 3rd grader at one of the following schools, sign up for the Northeast Spelling Bee!
Your child could win $3,000, $1500, or $500. Applications can be picked up from the 3rd grade Teacher and MUST be turned in by Dec. 1, 2021.
