The Georgia Department of Education is announcing its 2022 legislative priorities – key public-education issues that will guide State School Superintendent Richard Woods’ interactions with lawmakers in the upcoming regular session.

“Our legislative priorities are aligned with the greater vision of creating a public education system that is student-focused and classroom-centered,” Superintendent Woods said. “I look forward to working with the Georgia legislature to fully fund public education, ensure a raise for our hard-working teachers, and foster unity among students, educators, parents, and communities.”
