Thank you to @RISenate Finance Committee for hearing my bill to amend RI education funding formula to meet the needs of today<U+2019>s students, including multilingual learners. We must provide for equity among our communities when it comes to financial support for public education. https://t.co/mCJaefzP4I

Not surprisingly - today<U+2019>s session included legislation for a longer school day introduced by @SenLouDiPalma. The Cumberland Girl Scouts vigorously debated the issue and it passed 9-7. https://t.co/bu2cbNXMWq
Thanks @risenate FinComm for hearing Hope Scholarship bill (2yr scholarships for RIC juniors & seniors) & Wavemaker Fellowship expansion to include public school teachers (defrays loan payments for Fellows).

Exciting @RIPEC Ed funding panel moderated by @paigecparks. RI<U+2019>s Ed formula needs sustainable changes now- to meet needs of today<U+2019>s students- including multilingual learners. We must provide for equity among our communities when it comes to financial support for public education! https://t.co/kQL50nyqa7
Thank you to @SANDRISCANO @ThomasJPaolino @MiaForRep for your leadership getting this done. So important that our students have these critical financial skills! https://t.co/o7lJOJvSQ3
Excited to announce the opening of the Wavemaker fellowship for new applications. If you or someone you know has student loan debt and works in a STEM field please apply. TY to @GovDanMcKee and @CommerceRI for your continued partnership. https://t.co/foFE1AHDvl
“We all want better schools for all students. But, in our experience, school choice is expensive for municipalities and causes neighbors to fight each other over resources. This doesn't seem like progress to us.” @LisaBeaulieu @wjdennen https://t.co/V93Y57y9Bg
Enjoyed a good conversation with f@TimWhiteRIi and f@TedNesii this week on f@wpri12i Newsmakers regarding education funding and other state house topics. Be sure to watch this weekend. https://t.co/tmk0AVauUW
Was great to join members of the JJM Cumberland Hill community tonight as we cut the ribbon to the newly renovated school. Possible through our state school construction program and partnership with the Cumberland Town Council and School Committee. @CumberlandSchls https://t.co/Y6Ww1CD3Zu
