2 building equalization bills OK'd by ed task force
4 comments | Read story
It seems to me this legislature is the first that has had the guts to face the school growth issue square in the face and the solution to equalize is the best long term solution. Kudos to these creative legislators.
Regardless of the district division issue, WE NEED TO EQUALIZE THE BUILDING SIDE OF THE BUDGET as we have already done with the rest of the budget. The current system isn't fair! If you oppose equalizing just to stop the district division, you either don't care about fair education or you are being hypocritical.

Worst of all, this facade called "equalization" was created to facilitate the split of two large districts - Jordan and Granite - yet the bill does not "equalize" the burden of building new schools on the growing west side of the Granite District. In fact, according to information on Granite's website, after a split its west side would have LESS money for new schools.
