We want to hear your thoughts about the state of education in Florida. Please comment on the following:
1. Public schools in Sarasota County stand to lose $60m in state funding, if the Republican supermajority in Tallahassee passes HB-1, which would make all students eligible to receive state funds for private tuition.
2. The leadership changes at New College of Florida with a stated goal of transforming the school into the 'Hillsdale of the South'.
