WEST VIRGINIA LEGISLATIVE NEWS
from Eyewitness News Online Senate panel scales back House changes to ed bill April 07, 2009 7:24 PM CHARLESTON, W.Va. The Senate and House education committees are at odds over Gov. Joe Manchin's school innovation zone proposal. Manchin wants individual schools to pursue new ways to boost achievement. Schools with approved zone plans would be exempt from state law and policy on curriculum, personnel, scheduling and other matters. The Senate Education Committee voted Tuesday to cut several provisions added by its House counterpart. One removed provision required unanimous approval of a school's zone plan by its employees in certain cases. Senate Education returned the threshold to 80 percent, and excluded service personnel like cooks and janitors from voting. The Senate committee also restored a school's ability to waive a rule governing seniority and hiring. |
