Legislation has already been filed, or is promised, that would greatly expand school vouchers, make it easier to fire teachers and administrators and allow private management corporations to take over certain school districts, including the Little Rock School District, the state's largest. The legislature will consider whether K-12 education, the largest share of the state\u2019s budget, is adequately funded as required by the state Constitution. Increased funding for pre-K and moving higher education funding from enrollment-based to performance-driven also will be debated. All of these discussions will be steered by, and sometimes inform, the debate over how large a tax cut the state budget can afford (a cut of some size is seen as given).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ibbycaputo.com\/\">Ibby Caputo<\/a>, of Newton County, will provide ANNN\u2019s coverage from the state Capitol.
