It looks to me like he went to breakfast, lunch and dinner, appeared at events and SAT ON THINGS. Lol! Were you looking for this? It's a fine response to that criminal negligent (imho) "class size" amendment:
On smaller classrooms-
Governor Bush announced the first in a series of education plans today.
Excerpt from RPOF email:
Governor Bush proposes bonding the growth in the state's sales tax portion of the Communication Services Tax (CST) revenue over the next five years to provide $2.8 billion in school construction and renovation funds for Florida's 67 local school districts. Through the selling of bonds, and
by taking advantage of the current low interest rates, Florida will receive immediate funds to begin building schools while guaranteeing payment of the original investment plus interest to the entity purchasing the bonds by a specified future date. "There isn't an educator in Florida who doesn't want smaller classes, but the Coalition to Reduce Class Size's initiative will do more harm
than good. The initiative would take away any flexibility I have as a principal or my teachers have to teach our students," said Anna Diaz, principal, University High School in Orlando.
The Coalition to Reduce Class Size is a McBride thing and would indicate a tax increase.
