Groups pursue increase to education funding in Nev.
By Meghin Delaney, Las Vegas Review-Journal
A campaign aiming to force the Nevada Legislature to put more money into the state’s schools is ramping up its efforts.
Fund Our Future Nevada, which launched in February, wants lawmakers to dedicate more money for Nevada schools by increasing the state’s per pupil spending. The coalition — which includes parents, teachers and community activists — is spearheaded by Educate Nevada Now, an education-focused nonprofit, and Hope for Nevada, a parent advocacy group.
