Cassidy suggests increased oversight for education funding, teacher training programs to boost K-12 outcomes

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) will be releasing a plan to improve K-12 outcomes, including increased oversight of education funding and teacher training programs.

The chairman of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee will release a report Friday morning, bemoaning the state of childhood literacy and K-12 schooling generally. Cassidy recommends adopting a more decentralized approach to education to solve the problem, empowering states and parents to adopt flexible methods for individual students.
