[QUOTE]Moore so far isn’t offering many specifics but did say that [b]he plans to pause a program that is designed to give school teachers more time away from students for planning, grading, and professional development[/b]. The problem with that idea is that it requires hiring many more teachers across the state at a time when most districts are dealing with a teacher shortage.[/QUOTE]

I have a feeling the MCEA is going to have an opinion on this. It just seems that everyone involved in the Blueprint bit off way more than they could chew. Which was precisely what Gov. Hogan said when he vetoed the bill. But the Democrats in the Assembly who override his veto ignored his warnings. Now after making a bunch of promises to teachers, parents and educators, we have to walk all of it back despite those promises being codified in legislation.
