SCC testifies
on remedial education bill

The House Higher Education Committee voted 15-1 on Monday, Jan. 30, 2011 to send a bill encouraging innovative approaches in remedial education moving along the legislative conveyor belt. 

 

House Bill 2717 is the brainchild of committee chairman Rep. Larry Seaquist. The Gig Harbor lawmaker took his committee on the road this past summer for a series of meetings, or chautauquas, across the state. "This bill emerges from our summer's work," said Seaquist, noting that he and committee members saw many examples of innovative approaches. "And we saw how many more people we ought to be educating than we are educating right now."
