The committee on Education Workforce will come to order. Good morning and welcome to todays full committee hearing. I thank our panel of witnesses and our Committee Members for joining todays discussion on the implementation of the every Student Succeeds act, essa. Essa can be considereded a milestone for k12 policy because it was a monumental shift in the role and states and School Districts would have in the future of education and it sought to achieve two specific goals for k12 education and autonomy and accountability.

Gunshots. When officers got here they learned of the victims mom had also called 911 out of concern for her exhusband and their two daughters.
