## Resource

Globe Rhode Island’s Dan McGowan and Steph Machado moderated a panel discussion in front of a Rhode Map Live audience earlier this month about a report that aims to reform Rhode Island’s school funding formula. The panel featured David Cicilline, the head of the Rhode Island Foundation; Georgetown University Professor and education economist Nora Gordon; and John Papay, the director of the Annenberg Institute at Brown University.
