Budget

I'm getting endless input about the Governor's budget, telling me what I should think about it. Right now, I'm keeping an open mind, although I would dearly love to understand how the state will pay for it--closing loopholes is nice, but can it possibly make that much of a difference? Dryden will get an additional $1.7 million--or will it? It all depends on how that money is earmarked. If it's Pre-K funds, for example, we're out of luck, because we don't yet have a Pre-K program. And I wish the state would just bite the bullet and exempt schools from the Wicks Law.
