EACS board opposes bill that would expand voucher program ASHLEY SLOBODA | The Journal Gazette The elected leaders and teachers of East Allen County Schools have joined the chorus opposing proposals to expand the voucher program and establish education savings accounts. The school board approved Tuesday a joint resolution with the East Allen Education Association in opposition to House Bill 1005 and Senate Bill 413. "We stand united against the reallocation of public school funds," board President Todd Buckmaster said in a statement. "It is not good for our students, our staff or public education in general. It is time for our teachers and staff to be heard."
