School Closing Bill Is Defeated In Kansas Senate
In Topeka the Senate Education Committee defeated a bill allowing school boards to close schools without voter approval by unanimous voice vote. The measure faced opposition from Sen. Joe Norvell who noted current law already requires local consent. The panel also asked the attorney general to review HEW’s threat to withhold $38 million in federal impact aid, arguing for state control over funding to avoid unequal district support.
