Governor Asks for Patience with His Education Budget Cuts

Public school administrators and teachers are concerned the Legislature won't do enough to protect schools from big cuts over the next two years; but Governor John Kitzhaber is asking them to hold tight and support his efforts to overhaul the Public Schools Funding System. Kitzhaber's plan creates an Education Investment Board that would be charged with the task of developing a budget that spans the entire public school system, from early education to college. The State currently budgets separately for early education, K-through-12 and college.
