Commission On Education Improvement To Meet March 1
BISMARCK, N.D. - The Governor's Commission on Education Improvement will hold a meeting on Wednesday, March 1 beginning at 10 a.m. in the Roughrider Room of the State Capitol Building in Bismarck. Lt. Gov. Jack Dalrymple chairs the 13-member commission, comprised of administrators, educators and legislators from across the state.
Gov. Hoeven created the Commission on Education Improvement as part of the education funding plan proposed by the state and nine school districts suing North Dakota over school funding equity. The school districts have agreed to stay their lawsuit while the state pursues the plan. The commission will make recommendations to the Legislature for improving both funding adequacy and equity among districts.
