This week, we entered the final 30 days of the 2013 Legislative Session. This is the time when things really start to pick up, and we begin to see a lot of votes and action in the Legislature. Even though we are two-thirds through the session, there is still a ton of work left to do!
Many proposals remain outstanding, including some big issues for education. Here's a quick look at just a few of the major pieces of legislation we are still watching:
AB 288 - Eliminates the high school proficiency exam and replaces it with a new assessment system
