(Community Matters 150) Back to School: Lakeview Schools Excited for New Year, But Echo Others Over State Budget
Manage episode 501758996 series 3004310
July 1 has come and gone and MIchigan lawmakers still have not passed a state budget. By law, the budget should be passed by that date, but the law holds no teeth should that not happen.
Meanwhile, Michigan public schools are welcoming students back without knowing what their state-funded budget numbers are.
Lakeview Schools Superintendent Dr. William Patterson and Board of Education Chair Eric Greene talk about how the district is managing it. As well, they talk about a new cell phone policy in the district which no longer allows students to use their smart phones in school.
