Yesterday Game On testified against a new proposed school funding formula introduced in the House Education Committee. We realize the bill is in its early stages but we have a lot of concerns about it.

“Right now as the bill is written, it really hasn’t included any parents, or educators or school boards in the decision making process,” said Erin Gould, a member of ‘Game on for Kansas.’

“What do you call a classroom, you know, what are the costs that are involved in that classroom? Does class size make a difference in a classroom?” wonders Jim Freeman, CFO of Wichita Public Schools. “Or can we take a large classroom and cut it in half and get funded twice as much. I think there’s a lot of questions to have to be worked out yet.”
