Action in the Senate Early Learning & K-12 Education Committee on SB 6202, the bill that would authorize 10 charter schools a year, for a total of 50 in the next five years, appears to be the main reason the committee hasn't met to act on bills before today's cutoff for policy bills.
The teacher/principal evaluation bills are also part of the equation.
And with the meltdown in the House Education Committee earlier this week, the Governor lost her lab partnership bills and her version of the teacher/principal evaluation bills. All of which added up to Governor-intervention last night and today to see if some resolution could be found.
We've been waiting to hear whether a noon or 3:30 p.m. meeting would materialize, but so far nothing has been set.
Stay tuned.
