WSPTA Advocates for Choice in Social Studies Courses

Given only one minute to testify, WSPTA member Brian Duncan asked House Education Committee members to carefully consider HB 1396, which would limit student choice regarding social studies courses. Written testimony was also submitted. Hear Brian’s remarks here. Parent members who had signed in to speak on HB 1404 (highly capable students) and HB 1444 (access to mental health staff) were queued up but didn’t get an opportunity to speak to the committee when it ran out of time in the public hearing. Written comments were also submitted on these bills.
