Column: Movement Builds to Reform School Funding in New Hampshire

In Newport recently, about 150 people from around New Hampshire attended an informational session on school funding presented by Andru Volinksy and John Tobin — two of the attorneys who helped litigate a series of state Supreme Court cases in the 1990s that established the state’s responsibility to pay for an “adequate” education. The gathering could also be characterized as the beginnings of a grass-roots movement in reaction to the school funding crisis that many cities and towns are now experiencing.
