Rafferty Praises Ed Reform Push Amid Textbook Debates
Rafferty reports progress in state education as debates over textbook selection shift from ideology to fundamentals. He notes the Assembly’s votes on appointing an educational consultant and local control of texts, with the state printing office a financial factor. He highlights recent approvals of a geography text and two medieval histories and emphasizes phonics readers for elementary students. Rafferty says the era of top-down progressive bias is fading and praises the regained momentum toward basic instruction.
