Education
Schools should be given more flexibility in determining how to provide a quality education.
Higher state/property taxes are acceptable if they mean increased support for education.
Through the current Regents testing systems, our children are being taught to
take tests and not learning lessons to help them later in life.
A two-year, forward funding provision for education should be established so school
districts would know their state aid figures well in advance and can adequately plan their
annual budgets.
