Democrats take full control of Pennsylvania government. What does it mean for schools?

Did you know search engines like Google are changing the way you see news? Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. Pennsylvania’s legislature will no longer be divided. Tuesday night’s Democratic midterm election sweep handed the party control of the swing state’s governorship and both chambers of the General Assembly, which could mean significant changes ahead for statewide education policy. For the first time in more than three decades, Pennsylvania will have a governing trifecta. Gov. Josh Shapiro coasted to reelection, Democrats expanded their majority in the state House, and gained control of the state Senate for the first time since 1993. Public school advocates hope the Democratic takeover will accelerate school funding efforts that Republican lawmakers had mostly resisted. Laura Boyce, executive director of the Pennsylvania chapter of the advocacy group Teach Plus, said Wednesday she spoke with lawmakers before and after the election. Their top education issues in the next legislative session will likely be increasing school funding, adding money for literacy programs, and tackling school construction and renovation, according to Boyce. “The divided government excuse for not doing things to help to

McConnellsburg staves off Conemaugh Township in D5 girls soccer title

BEDFORD — A pair of second-half goals by senior Gemma Gordon propelled McConnellsburg to its second District 5 Class 1A girls soccer championship in three seasons with a 3-2 win over Conemaugh Township, Wednesday, Nov. 4, at Bedford High School. "Everyone's special," said McConnellsburg coach Josh McKelvy of the title. "This game and this feeling never get old. I'm very pleased for the girls because when we lost the seniors that we did last year, there was a question whether the new round of girls would be talented enough to fill in the gaps. They certainly left no doubt on that tonight." McConnellsburg (20-0-1) dominated play in the first half and gained an early advantage when a shot was played in near goal but was misplayed due to the side spin and booted home by Braelyn Barnes less than 3 minutes into the contest.

Elections over, Shapiro quiet on commitment to federal school choice program

(The Center Square) – Roughly 1.8 million students in Pennsylvania are potentially impacted by Gov. Josh Shapiro’s waffling over joining the federal school choice tax credit program. With elections in the rearview, its unclear when the administration will publicize its decision. The Center Square was unsuccessful in reaching the governor’s communications team on Thursday. In the meantime, a vocal coalition of program supporters sent a letter to Shapiro encouraging him to opt-in giving families access to educational support long financially out of reach. “That’s what makes this program so exciting,” said Jenny Sved, executive director of Teach PA, and one of nearly two dozen signatories from The Coalition for Educational Freedom, in a statement shared with The Center Square. “Whether it’s helping a family afford Jewish day school tuition, giving a public school student access to tutoring or SAT prep, or providing additional support for a child with special needs, this is a win for families across Pennsylvania.” The proposed program regulations from the Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service allow eligible taxpayers to claim an annual credit of up to $1,700 for qualifying contributions to scholarship-granting organizations, or up to $3,400 for married couples filing jointly.
