Without specific educational outcomes, nothing should be increased. Throwing money at the districts will not fix the issues of low scores in multiple areas.
We have this problem with the WEA and the WSBA in Wyoming too. Same demands for more money and the same poor outcome for Wyoming students. The only thing we do not have is the healthcare system through the “teachers union” because in Wyoming they are not “unionized”. Praise the Lord for that.
I understand the higher cost to deliver the “basket of goods” to students in rural communities with the unique situation both our states have in common, but that should mean we have some of the best performing schools in the country.
Yeah that NEA-Alaska run health care system is worse health care than State Run Alaska-Care and it is more expensive. There was a school district lawsuit to try to get them to report their financials so the district could know how to negotiate against the teachers union. The judge ruled in favor of the district, so instead of complying they just moved it out of state. Now it is in Seattle instead of Alaska.
