The Governor’s proposed education transformation plan threatens to drastically alter Vermont’s public education system, eliminating local control, increasing class sizes, and diverting public funds to private schools with less oversight. The plan lacks transparency and fails to address the root causes of rising costs, like health insurance.

These changes will affect every student, teacher, and community member in Vermont — and the impacts will be long-lasting. The Governor is asking for radical changes in a matter of months.

Vermonters deserve a thoughtful, data-driven approach to decisions about public education and tax dollars—not rushed policies with long-term consequences. The Governor’s plan ignores community voice and doesn't address impacts. It pushes forward an unrealistic timeline that could harm schools and communities.

Right now, the House and Senate are examining this proposal and making critical changes, but they need to hear from you. Contact your representatives and Senators today—tell them Vermonters want transparent, well-informed decisions that put students and communities first, not hasty reforms with uncertain outcomes.

Contact your House and Senate representatives today and urge them to stand against this harmful proposal and ask them to address your concerns!
