School finance summit at Wichita State postponed

By Associated Press - | Apr 29, 2015

? A school finance summit was postponed a day after leaders of a conservative think tank said they were concerned it would be a one-sided event because they were not invited.

However, organizers of the event scheduled for May 7 at Wichita State University said they postponed the summit because state lawmakers would be in session and unable to attend.

The Wichita Eagle reports the meeting was planned to talk about new block grant funding for schools.

Dave Trabert, president of the Kansas Policy Institute, says he was glad the event was postponed and he hoped his group would be included if it is held.

So far, the summit has not been rescheduled.
