Gov Sanders reveals 'major breakthrough' on education as red state positions itself as 'blueprint' for nation

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders highlights significant improvements in student proficiency rates following the implementation of the LEARNS Act, a Republican-backed education overhaul. The law includes teacher salary increases, performance-based bonuses, literacy support, and bans on critical race theory and related classroom teachings. Proficiency rates rose across all grades and subjects, with mathematics and science seeing over 7-8% gains in three years.
