A legislative education committee met and advanced five bills on a do-pass recommendation, including a proposal to create an office of math instruction with increased funding, paid bereavement leave for educators, an expansion of allowable digital payments for college savings, a $50 million school safety/SRO funding plan, and an added 20 minutes of recess for full‑day kindergarten. Most measures passed unanimously in committee; one math proposal passed 7–1 after a question about vendorization.
