Details
Submitted by[?]: Patriotic Party of Baltusia
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 4170
Description[?]:
| It is time to bring discipline and patriotism back to the classroom. We also want there to be flexibility in the way charter schools are run depending on the state by state requirements. For instance, in Lindar Valley there is a desire to teach more in the way of Luthorian history and create a new generation of well-informed history scholars. We aim to have an education system which is the envy of the world. Baltusia First, people, Baltusia First! Darius Darvos Patriotic Party Leader |
