>> Brownback’s office has argued that he’s not directly responsible for the problem, but local reporting noted that school districts are “losing $51 million they expected to receive for the current school year after Gov. Sam Brownback signed a school funding overhaul bill in March.” It is precisely what SHOULD have happened. These schools didn't use any snow days so they're closing TWO DAYS ahead of schedule. This is exactly what you want: Budgets that are tight enough to cause administrators not to waste money. And tight enough to make them realize they have no room to spare when negotiating salaries.
