School choice bill would indirectly provide funding for private schools

A bill that indirectly provides state funding for private schools and home schools is viewed as a victory for parent choice by some and potential cover for bad actors by others.
The bill, which on Wednesday was still waiting for Gov. Mike Parson s signature, creates what are called Empowerment Scholarship Accounts. It offers $50 million in tax credits for donations to not-for-profit organizations that provide scholarships for student tuition to private schools and religious schools or costs for home schools. The scholarships can be used by students in any town with a population over 30,000.
In the Senate, Caleb Rowden, R-Columbia, voted in favor. In the House vote, Republicans Chuck Basye, Rocheport; Cheri Reisch, Hallsville; and Sara Walsh, Ashland, voted in favor of the bill. State Rep. Martha Stevens, D-Columbia, voted against it. The House vote happened before the election of Democratic State Rep. David Tyson Smith, of Columbia. ....

Rock Bridge senior receives award for project to end 'period poverty'

It started as a civics class proposal when Shruti Gautam was a freshman.
It was something I always kind of noticed was missing, Shruti said. It was a problem for my friends.
The problem? The lack of feminine hygiene products in Columbia Public Schools.
Her idea was to stock all-female student restrooms with free feminine hygiene products or in plainer terms, menstrual products or period products.
I just think that it s a basic human right to take care of your body, said Shruti, now a 17-year-old senior.
She took her idea to teachers, to janitors, to Jen Rukstad, who then was Rock Bridge principal, and then to Chief Equity Officer Carla London and Superintendent Peter Stiepleman. They allowed her to conduct a pilot project at Rock Bridge, she said. ....

The State of the State address is a time for the Governor to outline policy and budget goals for the year. Parson s office has said little though about the contents of his 2021 speech.
