Senator Hough @lincolnhough has been a strong advocate for our @MOEducation public schools. Loss of his position as Appropriations Committee chair likely to negatively impact schools and universities. @MASALeaders
GOP Sen. Lincoln Hough of Springfield confirms he is no longer chairman of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee. He was one of only two Republicans to vote against gerrymandered congressional map and limits on the initiative petitions. #moleg

Very important story for our rural school districts in America that have national forest lands. @nrea1 #GOP Congress fails to fund program that helped cover school funding losses due untaxable federal lands. @EricBurlison @JasonSmithMO #RuralKidsMatter
In Missouri, rural districts with national forest land grapple with federal funding loss https://t.co/HVPBV0aNNq via @springfieldNL @MOEducation @CaboolSchools @CassvilleSchool

Rural schools need state funding to remain competitive. As wealthier suburban school districts can generate revenue for things like salaries, technology, and facilities, --rural schools can't keep up. To see Missouri DEAD LAST in % state funding is sobering for rural schools.

Today, National Rural Education Assoc @nrea1 releases newest edition of "Why Rural Matters 2023" -looks at conditions of rural education in the US. Sadly, @MoEducation is ranked 5th in "priority" out of concern for rural schools. @MASALeaders @moasbo @CRileyNL

Newest edition of "Why Rural Matters" from National Rural Education Assoc @nrea1 notes that @MOEducation spends less than $6000 per rural pupil, only 81% of the national rural average. Teachers make almost $14000 less (on average) than rural teachers in other states.
