Financial Education - Let's Add More to Teacher/Student Workload
It's hard to say what is going on but Rep. Sharon Tomiko Santos appears to be taking a sharp turn to the ed reform side. The newest evidence comes from the Seattle Education blog: Washington State Representative Santos was a primary sponsor for yet another nonsensical bill, House Bill 1121. From the Washington State School Directors Association (WSSDA) Watch List , is the following description of the bill: Directs the partnership to work with OSPI to integrate financial ed into common core and career and college standards. Directs districts to offer a course students can take at school or home (meaning online) . Districts are encouraged to grant credit. Allows the partnership to seek federal and private funds (guess who from).
