Vermont voters to decide on historic school merger plan
Clip: 5/31/2016 | 6m 38s
Vermont votes on the largest public school reorganization in 125 years.
In Vermont, voters will decide next week whether to okay the largest public school reorganization in 125 years. A new ballot measure would merge smaller schools and do away with perks that let parents use tax dollars to send their kids to private schools, even in Canada. Opposition is fierce, but advocates say it’ll cut costs and strengthen public schools. John Tulenko of Education Week reports.
