State of Education Address Foreshadows Budget Priorities
By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | September 15, 2016
In a passionate State of Education address today, grounded in his lifetime service to public education, State Superintendent Tony Evers foreshadowed priorities of the 2017-19 state budget request he will submit to the governor later this fall. He touched on the importance of
– providing resources to students that reflect the need to increase equity and close achievement gaps,
– building the educator workforce so every student has a teacher who is well trained and well compensated, and
– paying for schools in a way that avoids mounting inequalities.
Additional information is available in the attached news release. This release will be posted to the Department of Public Instruction newsroom website later today.
