On September 19th, Massachusetts lawmakers introduced the Student Opportunity Act, a legislature that would add 1.5 billion dollars to the public school system. It most benefits schools with a high percentage of poor students and also gives English Language Learner departments more funding additionally requiring districts to create plans that would close opportunity gaps in public school systems. On the subject of the act, Jason Lewis said “[He] looks forward to continuing to work with [his] colleagues and all education stakeholders as this bill advances in the legislative process.” (from patch.com).
