House Leadership Wants Caps On Administrative Costs In School Districts

Missouri House leadership is contemplating requiring school districts cap their administrative costs, but say they will discuss their proposal with school administrators before moving on legislation. House Speaker Catherine Hanaway says leadership will talk with school superintendents and school board members when the Missouri School Boards’ Association hosts its legislative forum in Jefferson City on Monday. Hanaway acknowledges that the legislature has added to administrative costs over the years by increasing accountability requirements.
