Education is one of the most basic, but important responsibilities of a government in a democracy.. It's prog=ms need to be funded by the state.

Rebecca WilsonOpposeConcord, NHfor New Hampshire School Boards AssociationFeb 13, 2026

NHSBA is opposed to this bill.

Shirley MontgomeryOpposeHanover, NHfor MyselfFeb 13, 2026

This seems to be a poorly written bill with technical flaws which may make it difficult for school districts to implement properly.

Georgina LambertOpposeBelmont, NHfor MyselfFeb 13, 2026

HB 1807 is framed as a transparency measure but operates, in practice, as a structural austerity mechanism that reshapes democratic decision-making around education funding. By privileging cost, tax impact, and standardized performance metrics (eugenics)—without equity or trauma-informed safeguards—the bill risks systematic harm to students, educators, and under-resourced communities. Im sick of Reps like Kristin Noble, who waste our tax dollars with these out of touch LSRs

I oppose this bill - It seems to be poorly worded and Dept of Ed. said it would be hard for school districts to implement.

FUND PUBLIC EDUCATION. Take a little burden off your constituents property taxes.

This should be amended to include all private educational institutions. Examples are Kimball Union Academy in Plainfield, Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, and Cardigan Mountain School in Canaan.
