Kenneth Wong, professor of education policy, commented on an article about Rushern L. Baker's proposal to increase property taxes to fund Prince George County's struggling school system. Wong said it's unusual to have a double-digit tax increase to fund schools, adding "It sends a strong signal that the new team will take school reform seriously."
