Luna: Testimony was not ‘window dressing to us’

State Supt. of Schools Tom Luna pitches three new bills on his school reform plan on Monday to the Senate Education Committee (Betsy Russell)

State Superintendent of Schools Tom Luna told the Senate Education Committee, “The testimony that was given to this committee over those three days was not window-dressing to us. We heard good ideas and good comments, and we’ve responded accordingly.”

The Senate Education Committee then quickly voted to introduce all three of Luna’s new bills; the single motion passed without discussion, and Chairman John Goedde, R-Coeur d’Alene, said the committee will have the bills back on Wednesday for more discussion.
