The Maryland House of Delegates recently passed Governor Wes Moore’s bill to amend the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future, despite not including his proposed funding cuts. The bill, known as the Excellence in Maryland Public Schools Act, aims to implement education reforms that are considered groundbreaking and have been proven effective. The original bill included a pause in funding increases for community schools and a delay in teacher collaborative time, but these provisions were removed in the final version that was approved by the House. Chair of the House Appropriations Committee, Ben Barnes, emphasized the importance of investing in Maryland’s school children, especially in the face of potential federal education budget cuts. The bill was approved with a party-line vote of 100-39, signaling strong support for the reforms outlined in the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future.
