Some snippets for your weekend perusal:

Here in Kentucky, if the legislators can negotiate it in confernece, it looks like we may get a new testing package. We are also possibly eliminating tenure at our community colleges. 

A Washington appellate court upholds a lower court decision denying relief to school districts in a special education finance case. But, Washington does move forward on its school finance reform in the Legislature. And, just one more from Washington, a community college there denies a student's request to post anti-abortion signs - student sues. 

A New York Times article on gender segregation in schools. 

Changes to Hartford, CT's school choice policy angers parents. 

An Illinois School Funding Q and A. 

South Carolina advances on their student - teacher sex law. 

And, Montana is moving toward a pretty big distance learning program. Nice to see rural states getting on board with this.
