$1.9 Billion in new education spending
Over at The Education Report I take a look at Tennessee’s giant revenue surplus and offer a proposal on how that money could be invested to benefit public schools and all of Tennessee.
Here are the basics:
20% raise for all teachers – $625 million
Free school breakfast and lunch for all students – $714 million
Investment in Pre-k – 3rd grade reading – $500 million
We can afford it, our students and communities deserve it.
