Senate To Take Up DPS Legislation

The state senate resumes its work this morning and one of the big items on the agenda is legislation on the Detroit Public Schools.

The House plan would provide $500 million to help wipe out the district’s debt.

But a Senate plan calls for $715 million and includes a ‘new’ district with a Detroit Education Commission to oversee school openings and closings in Detroit.
