Ask education committee to support lower class sizes

Educators know reasonable class sizes allow us to do more for our students, yet every year it seems they keep increasing. A bill, AB 739, that makes class size reduction the primary focus of the Achievement Gap Reduction Program, which replaced the former SAGE program, has been introduced and sent to the Assembly Education Committee. This bill would eliminate alternative options for school boards to receive AGR funding, and instead require class sizes of no more than 18 pupils (or 30 pupils in classes with two teachers). Thanks to all WEAC Education Advocates who pushed to get this bill introduced! Read More Here.
