An Affirmation and a Call to Action: Commissioner Fletcher issues a statement on Amendment 2 election results

"The election results demonstrate that the resolution passed by the Kentucky Board of Education in October aligns with the Commonwealth’s commitment to using state funds exclusively for the common system of public schools. As commissioner, I see this as both an affirmation that a majority of Kentucky's residents support public education and a call to action to earn the trust of ALL Kentuckians. 

"While I sincerely appreciate these results, I believe they present an opportunity for public educators, including myself, to deepen engagement with ALL stakeholders to ensure we deliver the best possible education system for ALL students."

 – Commissioner of Education Robbie Fletcher, Ed.D.
