“Public charter schools deserve our support and investment. These schools are an important part of the education landscape in New Hampshire, and this increase in funding will ensure they continue to be an option for New Hampshire families. We want to ensure that parents have the opportunity to send their children to a school that best suits their individual needs. This bill provides a modest increase in funding and would indexes future increases which will keep our promise to promote innovation in education.”
