Paying for Education

Season 1 Episode 115 | 26m 59sVideo has Closed Captions

Washington's underfunded public schools, overcrowded classrooms and the McCleary decision.

The Washington Supreme Court's McCleary decision ordered the State Legislature to find billions more in funding for public education annually. We look at the showdown brewing to find the money and how some parents trying to fund the gap. Considering overcrowding, we look at the nationwide trend of "flipping" classrooms and how temporary solutions might be making our kids—and the environment—sick.
