Mandatory kindergarten bill progresses through La. House committee
A Louisiana House committee has advanced a bill that would make kindergarten mandatory, with a potential cost of $12 million if enrollment increases by 6%. The bill, Senate Bill 10, requires children to attend kindergarten if they turn 5 by September 30th. The bill has passed the Senate and is now under consideration by the House Appropriations Committee, partly due to the availability of federal COVID-19 relief funds and higher state revenue projections. The bill allows for home-schooling options and emphasizes the importance of early learning, with some lawmakers expressing concerns about parental rights and state mandates.
Georgia mom's rant at school board meeting against mask mandate goes viral: 'It has to stop'
Courtney Ann Taylor, a mother of three, made a viral plea at a Gwinnett County Board of Education meeting to remove mask mandates for children, arguing it inhibits their social development and is unnecessary given the low impact of COVID-19 on young children. Despite available vaccines, the mandate persists, prompting Taylor to start a petition and engage with the school board. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has eased some COVID-19 restrictions, and Republican lawmakers have challenged the CDC's mask guidelines for children.
Greater broadband access could come to rural communities from state public safety network
A Louisiana task force recommended auctioning part of a high-speed internet spectrum to service providers and businesses to improve broadband access in rural communities, while ensuring 10% remains reserved for public safety use during emergencies. The Federal Communications Commission had allocated 50 megahertz of the 4.9 GHz spectrum to Louisiana, initially for public safety, but expanded its uses due to underutilization. The task force's recommendations will be considered by the Legislature this spring, and any auction revenue will support the new state Office of Broadband.
