7035-0002 for adult education is $38,295,000, which is a $195K increase over the House, but it's an earmark
the $73,856,506 for regional transportation reimbursement (7035-0006) is the same as the House
7035-0007 is vocational transportation; the House didn't fund; the Senate has $250K, same as the Gov.
HAPPENING NOW: I'm speaking in support of my #SenBudget Amdt 512 to support School-Based Health Centers. Our students need preventative care, mental health counseling, and other social, emotional & medical supports at school #HealthyYouth #mapoli
Mass. has nearly 60 school-based health centers, in 23 cities & towns; SBHCs improve student health AND academic performance
SBHCs:
1) Decrease Student absenteeism by 50%
2) Decrease Student tardiness by 25%
3) Increase Student GPAs and graduation rates #SenBudget #mapoli

Speaking now on the #CivicEngagement benefits of @MAhistoryday & @NationalHistory. "More than 5,000 students from grades 6-12 competed in the most recent completion" #SenBudget #mapoli #NHD
Partnership with #MassHistoricalSociety & @masscultural has boosted and supported @MAhistoryday, but Mass. can step up and provide even more support for this active, creative learning opportunity
