Teacher-Quality Spending on Federal Chopping Block

The U.S. House is poised to take a big axe to a bunch of federal teacher-quality programs.

A panel of House appropriators put forth the spending plan last week, as my colleague Andrew Ujifusa wrote, and the House Committee on Appropriations approved the bill, 31-19, this morning.

Among the program it proposes cutting are the major teacher-quality grant, now called Supporting Effective Instruction State grants.
