Luna: ‘We have accomplished comprehensive reform in Idaho’
State schools Supt. Tom Luna said after the Senate Education Committee's vote, "We've addressed the concerns - that's the process." He said, "I wish there was more than the $13 million going for technology, but I understand the fiscal constraints." He said his original bill, SB 1113, would have put $24 million into technology. Luna said between the new bill, SB 1184, and the two already signed into law, SB 1108 on teacher contracts and SB 1110 on teacher performance pay, "We have accomplished comprehensive reform in Idaho." He also noted that the bill cleared the committee today by a stronger margin than the last one; SB 1113 had just squeaked through the panel on a 5-4 vote.
