From the Augusta Insider
Maine is not the only state going through lean budget times. Across the country states are agonizing over what programs to cut and save in order to come to terms with revenue shortfalls. The education budget took a big hit, leaving districts scrambling to make ends meet. A lot of folks want to raise taxes in some capacity. That certainly is one way the state to mitigate education funding loss. Cutting programs, increasing class sizes (ie. firing teachers), and mandatory pay freezes are a few of the other ideas being tossed around. Times like these often spur great innovative solutions. I'm not sure if I would call this plan from Washington state one of those, but it's still worth discussing.
