Foundation Budget Review Commission is BACK

After a summer hiatus, the Foundation Budget Review Commission is meeting today at the State House at 9:30 in hearing room A1 (which is in the basement, if memory serves). I'm heading in on the train to take notes.
As the initial report took up out-of-district special ed (though not to the degree necessary) and health insurance, they'll be looking at what's left at this point. The list they've put together is:

• in-district special education 
• low income increment
• ELL increment
• mental health/ wraparound services
• Professional development/common planning time/instructional coaches
• extended learning time
• technology
• full day preschool
• K-3 pupil-teacher ratios
• operations and maintenance
• inflation adjustment

They're also going to be looking at their effective use and efficiencies charge, and they've floated several items on tying expenditures to particular uses.
