Maryland Education Funding Plea At Annapolis Hearing

Rita Gordon, chair of the Maryland Association of Boards of Education federal relations network, tells senators and congressmen at an Annapolis hearing that cuts exceed 75 million and threaten teachers, programs, and handicapped services. The action highlights broader state concerns as districts face layoffs and rising costs while funding authority rests with county leaders.
