Education advocates praise President’s investments in public school programs
The Network for Public Education (NPE) is praising President Biden’s proposed budget as a win for public schools.
NPE’s executive director, Carol Burris, said of the budget, “This budget is the mirror opposite of budget proposals by the present House leadership that slash funding to children served by critical programs like Title I while proposing an increase to the already bloated Federal Charter School Programs (CSP).”
The group noted the proposal includes $450 million of new money for key programs benefiting kids in schools across the country.
