Federal cuts threaten Illinois school improvement plan
Illinois Superintendent of Education Ted Sanders warned that large federal budget reductions could erode the foundation of the state's school improvement efforts. Speaking during a briefing for Illinois lawmakers, he said Reagan's proposed 1986 budget would cut about 94 million dollars in federal support for Illinois elementary and high schools over two years, with the first proposal yielding 465 million for the next school year, nearly 26 million less than current practice.
