dese.ade.arkansas.gov/Files/2024_-... If you haven’t perused the entire list of approved vendors for LEARNS Act money, it’s worth a bit of your time. Followed by googling some of them…. To imagine what our public schools could do with this money!

Can you imagine the impact $90m would have on our public schools? The critical needs the $90m in reserve could fund? We could move the needle on so many critical issues-workforce housing, mental health treatment, addiction treatment & more-if we had the political will.

Word of the day is ‘librocubicularist’: one who loves nothing better than reading in bed. (Not easy to say, but I’m glad to know it exists).
