Kentucky Education Association Seeks More School Funding
KEA secretary J Marvin Dodson told a Louisville dinner gathering that Kentucky needs as much as 15 million in act funds for the 1958 60 biennium to support the state education program. He cited 12 to 25 million more in state funds and urged a tax base expansion to maintain current programs and accommodate growth. State Superintendent Robert Reed said about 20 of Kentucky's 219 districts levy a maximum property tax and reforms depend on legislative action. The meeting was part of regional hearings to explain school needs and aid KEA in lobbying.
