Hi Next Gen'ers,
Good News! The AEL is exempted, and we are in the clear for the remaining 4+ months this year.
Bad News: I was busy most of the day, so I didn't get another loophole out before they took the vote. Don't worry, we get to do this again next February. The other bad news is that we are still waiting for a permanent fix. Some people say that it's not a resource problem, it's a spending problem, and to that, I say...no, it's a math problem. If you want to cut 17% from School Districts when 85% of the school year is complete but you think it's ok to not cap Charters and ESAs in a similar manner...well, that just doesn't add up.
Enjoy the rest of the week, and here's to not talking about the AEL!
