NH School Scoop Podcast - June 3, 2026

This morning I received an important update from Alex Tilsley, Director of Policy at Reaching Higher New Hampshire [https://www.reachinghighernh.org/], about an important detail I did not report on in the Scoop: She alerted me that another piece of open enrollment legislation emerging from negotiations concerns the funding model in which schools pay 80% of their per-pupil cost to the receiving school. NHPR’s Annmarie Timmins updated her stor [https://www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026-05-29/open-enrollment-nh-legislature-school-choice-education-funding-local-taxes-schools]y to reflect this point.
