04-19-24 Interview - DougCo Superintendent Erin Kane - Taking From Peter to Pay Paul is Not How to Fix School Funding
TAKING FROM PETER TO PAY PAUL IS NOT HOW TO FIX SCHOOL FUNDING School funding in Colorado is a complex matter. A lot of people think that what they pay in property taxes stays in their local district but that isn't how it works. Now members of the Legislature are working to "fix" the funding formula but I see some glaring flaws in what is being discussed, not the least of which is how are we going to pay for all of this when the Education fund runs dry in a couple of years? You can read the bill here if you'd like but hoo boy is it complicated. That's why I asked DougCo Superintendent Erin Kane to come on at 2:30 to talk about what this would mean for her district and others.

Customer Reviews
Love My Mandy!
I really missed Mandy when she left Louisville, and when I found her podcast I was so happy. She is the best, most interesting, very knowledgeable... I consider her the female “Rush Limbaugh”.
I was enjoying the podcast but then
I was hopeful this podcast could be fair and informative for Coloradans but as usual it doesn’t happen. We don’t want to hear about Trump lovers or haters, just the issues. It is unfair for you to take an issue about Tina Peters without truly hearing both sides and questioning what has happened in Colorado. Have you considered interviewing her?
Vaccine
I am a new listener who was happy to find this channel, until they started talking about “vacvine hesitancy” with “Trumpsters”. This is a flat out lie, misinformation, and false narrative that does nothing but continue the divisiveness being spewed. Get over yourselves, do a little research and you will come to find that it is Republicans who are hesitant to take the questionably forced vaccine. Mandy needs to shut her blabbing mouth
