HB1701: Representative Sanjie Manohar (Hillsboro District 9, Nashua Ward 5) Support00:07:14.639 - 8:35:50 AM; Representative Manohar introduced HB1701, emphasizing New Hampshire's challenge in retaining college graduates who often leave for neighboring states due to student loan pressures and wage differences. The bill creates a voluntary, employer-funded framework for retention incentives to keep graduates in the state during their early career years. He addressed the fiscal note concerns by noting an amendment that clarifies administrative roles, relies on employer self-certification, and requires no new infrastructure. The program starts in 2026 with nominal appropriations, serving as a low-risk test. He responded to committee questions on recruitment vs. retention, the framework's value for small businesses, potential workplace friction, comparisons to other states, and eligibility for certificate programs.
HB1701: Karen Benfield (Executive Director, Stay Work Play New Hampshire, representing Stay Work Play NH, Business and Industry Association of NH, and NH College and University Council) Support00:24:32.400 - 8:53:08 AM; Benfield supported HB1701 as a vital tool for workforce development, highlighting New Hampshire's aging workforce (28% aged 55+), talent export ranking in the top five states, and the need to retain young graduates amid competition from other states. She noted that young people seek pathways to prosperity and that the program addresses this by providing retention incentives. Representing a coalition of education, business, and youth organizations, she emphasized the bill's role in elevating statewide workforce discussions. She addressed questions on why state involvement is needed, noting surrounding states' incentives and the value of state leadership to shine a light on the issue. She discussed holistic factors like lifestyle, data on returnees (strong in 35-40 age group but weak in 18-35), and potential expansions.
HB1791: Representative Burton Support00:40:59.520 - 9:09:35 AM; Representative Burton sponsored HB1791 for moral and practical reasons, citing the need to help individuals with disabilities achieve their potential and address New Hampshire's aging workforce crisis (27% aged 55+). He drew from his experience updating special education laws post-Laconia State School closure and his work with Senator Ted Kennedy on federal TIP programs for students with intellectual disabilities, including autism and brain injuries. The bill funds postsecondary grants to prepare these students for life skills and vocational needs, noting New Hampshire is the only state without such a program despite federal funding availability in 49 others. He responded to questions on existing services, financial details ($100,000 appropriation), eligibility without high school diplomas, UNH's past grant decisions, program structure for community colleges vs. universities, pilot possibilities, and DEI implications.
HB1791: Unidentified Speaker Information Only00:57:06.799 - 9:25:42 AM; The speaker references a court experience where Judge McGiff questioned the Attorney General about the Constitution and highlights New Hampshire law section 358 defining disabilities as protected. They suggest focusing on this aspect for Representative Bricky.
HB1791: Preston Bowden, Manchester resident and college administrator Support00:58:03.760 - 9:26:39 AM; Bowden shares his extensive career in education, including roles in underprivileged areas like the South Bronx. He discusses Manchester Community College's role in serving veterans, charter schools, and programs like Granite State Independent Living. He strongly supports the bill for improving accessibility and opportunities for students with disabilities, noting the current strain on one accessibility counselor serving over 250 students with various diagnoses. He advocates for expanded supports like soft skills training to serve more students, especially from special education, and references a successful but expensive program at Iona College. He expresses concern that the proposed funding may be insufficient statewide but emphasizes the importance for individuals with disabilities to achieve self-sufficiency.
HB1791: Brennan Madden, New Hampshire resident and NH Leadership Series participant Support01:05:12.240 - 9:33:48 AM; Madden, involved in the Institute of Disability at UNH's leadership program focusing on accessible postsecondary education, shares his personal story of overcoming a brain tumor diagnosis while in college. He credits services from the Center for Academic Planning and Success (CAPS), including tutoring, quiet testing spaces, and assistive technology like Dragon software, for his success in earning an associate's degree and becoming chairman of a nonprofit. He notes the lack of inclusive postsecondary programs in New Hampshire for those with developmental disabilities, with College Odyssey as the only option, unlike surrounding states. He supports an in-state grant program to ensure access to higher education and help students reach their potential.
HB1791: Unknown Speaker (former teacher from Winthrop, Maine) Support01:09:47.198 - 9:38:23 AM; The speaker, a former fourth-grade teacher from Winthrop, Maine, shared an anecdote about teaching the Palmer or Zaner-Bloser method of handwriting to students. She emphasized the importance of legible handwriting, noting that many young people's writing today is hard to read. She recounted an exercise where she redistributed anonymized student papers, and the students couldn't read them, illustrating the need for clear communication skills. She concluded by strongly supporting cursive and manuscript writing, congratulating the committee for considering this important bill.
HB1791: Melissa Diodati, Institute on Disability at University of New Hampshire Support01:11:01.679 - 9:39:37 AM; Melissa Diodati testified on her own behalf with expertise in inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE). She highlighted significant disparities in education and employment for people with disabilities in New Hampshire, with a 36.9 percentage point employment gap and larger-than-average education gaps. Nationally, only 3.2% of 18-25-year-olds with intellectual and developmental disabilities are enrolled in college. IPSE programs support students with disabilities in accessing college for employment preparation, independent living, and social skills through coordinated academic, employment, and social supports, often partnering with campus services and agencies. Outcomes include higher employment rates (twice as likely), 51% higher earnings, and 74% of graduates in paid employment post-program. New Hampshire lacks IPSE programs despite evident interest, with 71% of young adults and 93% of families supporting higher education access in-state. A needs assessment showed preference for local programs. She suggested starting with seed money or a pilot. During Q&A, she addressed funding concerns, noting budgets vary ($100,000-$500,000+ in other states) and the need for partnerships; supported piloting at one community college; and discussed opportunity gaps, access via campus supports like peer mentoring and academic coaching, and leveraging existing resources.
HB1791: Gail Hoisington, Merrimack, NH resident and Institute on Disabilities Leadership Series participant Support01:26:05.760 - 9:54:41 AM; Gail Hoisington testified on her own behalf as a parent of an elementary school child with a developmental disability who receives extensive school supports via IEP, leading to academic gains. She projected that in 10 years, when her son attends college, this bill could provide crucial supports like quiet workspaces. She argued it's reasonable to expect accommodations in higher education, similar to K-12 and workplace requirements under disability laws. As the only state without such legislation, New Hampshire forces families out-of-state to expensive, non-federally loan-covered programs, limiting options. She wants her son to have in-state choices to decide his path independently.
HB1791: Karen Blake, private citizen and parent Support01:28:12.880 - 9:56:48 AM; Karen Blake testified on her own behalf and for her son, who attends the THAMES program at Mitchell College in New London, CT, a 3-hour-45-minute drive away, because no similar supports exist in New Hampshire. Her son, who graduated high school on time with a 3.68 GPA via IEP supports, needs help transitioning to independence but found no in-state options, including at Keene State (lacking note-takers, dorm supports) or the Bridges online program (requiring her assistance while working 40 hours/week as a single parent after her husband's death). Out-of-state programs are unaffordable without support. The THAMES program is credit-bearing with housing, social supports, tutoring, and experiential learning (e.g., marine biology at Mystic Aquarium), preparing him for degrees in digital communications and film. She implored passage of the bill, even as a small pilot at one community college, to provide opportunities and sustain families economically. In Q&A, she noted they didn't pursue Great Bay's CAPS due to program mismatch; described THAMES as a 4-year supported pathway; and thanked vocational rehabilitation for aid.
HB1835: Alicia Greg, Representative, Nashville Ward 7 Support01:45:48.080 - 10:14:24 AM; Alicia Greg introduced HB1835 on behalf of the prime sponsor, Representative Heather Raymond, who was unable to attend due to a medical issue. She read Raymond's testimony, highlighting the dramatic increase in special education costs in the Nashville School District since 2021, including higher costs, fewer providers, and more qualifying students—a trend seen statewide. The state currently provides about $2,100 in differentiated aid per IEP student, far below the $31,000 average cost, leaving a $29,000 gap. A court ruling declared this unconstitutional, as it only covers testing costs. The bill proposes 80% quarterly reimbursement based on actual reported costs to close the gap, ensure compliance, and enable data collection for identifying trends, improving service availability, and reducing costs.
HB1835: Andrew Valinski, private citizen, Concord Support01:50:28.000 - 10:19:04 AM; Andrew Valinski, lead counsel in the Claremont school funding case, testified in support of HB1835. He addressed the monetary increase, noting K-12 spending is about $4 billion, with $1 billion for special education, 90% borne by local property taxes. He illustrated the issue with an example from Concord, where moving across town could shift fiscal burdens unpredictably between districts, leading to higher taxes in areas like Penacook without planning ability. Shifting funding to the state level makes sense as special education needs are constant statewide, avoiding arbitrary local impacts. On timing, he criticized delayed reimbursements under 186-C, which can be prorated, causing cash flow issues for high-cost students ($100,000-$300,000). He urged enhancing state contributions to maintain $1 billion total spending but increase the state share for better planning, and ensuring timely payments to defray expenses without impacting regular education budgets or requiring excessive local rainy day funds.
HB1835: Andrew Valinski, private citizen, Concord Support01:59:15.520 - 10:27:51 AM; Valinski continues responding to questions, explaining the impracticality of shifting all special education funding to the state level without re-engineering the IEP process and duplicating staff. He supports the bill's proposal to keep 20% local funding to maintain local involvement. He highlights disparities in IEP quality between districts with varying property values, such as Hopkinton and Newport, where poorer districts limit referrals and services to cut costs, creating opportunity gaps. He argues that timely state payments would improve cash flow and help close these gaps without needing substantial increases in funding. He notes that while some districts maintain rainy day funds for special education, this indicates over-taxation, and even districts with trust funds can be depleted by unexpected needs. He discusses borrowing costs borne by local taxpayers and the timing issues with budget cycles versus unexpected expenses. He advocates for direct state billing for out-of-district placements to ease local burdens.
HB1835: Rep. Luna Information Only02:01:19.040 - 10:29:55 AM; Rep. Luna asks follow-up questions on opportunity gaps in IEPs due to funding differences and whether improved cash flow from the bill could help close them.
HB1835: Rep. Bricky Information Only02:02:29.040 - 10:31:05 AM; Rep. Bricky inquires about the prevalence of school districts using expendable trust funds for unexpected special education needs and whether this leads to over-taxation, citing her district's $1 million target.
HB1835: Rep. Fellows Information Only02:03:30.800 - 10:32:06 AM; Rep. Fellows questions whether borrowing options and budget shifting in larger districts address the cash flow issues, suggesting focus on increasing state contributions rather than payment timing, and notes that adequacy aid is based on prior-year data which evens out over time.
HB1835: Rep. Weinstein Information Only02:09:15.280 - 10:37:51 AM; Rep. Weinstein asks about the borrowing process in relation to town meeting timelines, highlighting the challenge of unexpected September expenses before March meetings.
HB1835: Rep. Lash Information Only02:11:57.280 - 10:40:33 AM; Rep. Lash, chair of the Monadnock Valley School Board, discusses their depleted special education trust fund despite planning, and asks if many districts with such funds still face wipeouts from one or two students. She follows up on whether the Department of Education has data on this.
HB1835: Unidentified Representative Information Only02:15:36.000 - 10:44:12 AM; The representative questions whether overall state special education costs remain level while shifting burdens to specific districts, citing examples like Wolfeboro's 107% increase and Pembroke's fluctuations.
HB1835: Brian Eaton, NH Department of Education, Bureau of School Finance Information Only02:19:36.879 - 10:48:12 AM; Eaton provides a memo on the bill's fiscal impacts, explaining that it removes special education differentiated aid from the adequacy formula and allows quarterly billing up to 80% of IEP costs. He estimates FY27 net impact at $719 million plus $200,000 in processing costs, based on FY25 expenditures over $1 billion. He notes additional administrative burdens and recommends local districts for trust fund data. He clarifies exclusions like IDEA federal funds ($50 million) and confirms funding would shift from local property taxes to the education trust fund. He addresses invoicing timelines, suggesting lapsed appropriations for payments crossing fiscal years, similar to current processes.
HB1835: Rep. Luno Information Only02:22:29.920 - 10:51:05 AM; Rep. Luno questions the source of the estimated $670 million in state dollars after excluding federal funds.
HB1835: Rep. Fellows Information Only02:23:26.319 - 10:52:02 AM; Rep. Fellows critiques the bill's invoicing process, noting delays that could push reimbursements into the next year, complicating adequacy aid calculations.
HB1835: Rep. Spillsbury Information Only02:26:56.800 - 10:55:32 AM; Rep. Spillsbury suggests limiting the bill to residential and out-of-district placements to manage costs, asking for estimates on expenditures for those cases.
HB1835: Rep. McGuire Information Only02:29:20.000 - 10:57:56 AM; Rep. McGuire requests testimony from Ms. Fredette on invoicing processes and proposes adding HB1835 to a subcommittee with related bills like HB1557 and HB1563 for further discussion.
HB1202: Representative Rick Lad, Haverhill, NH Support02:32:55.600 - 11:01:31 AM; Introduced HB1202, explaining it addresses issues with dual and concurrent enrollment programs. Noted the program's success in saving students money on college courses. Highlighted problems with current law limiting students to four courses per year, regardless of credit hours, especially for career technical education courses with more than four credits. Deferred detailed explanations to experts from NHTI and CCSNH.
HB1202: Shauna Young, Director of Secondary Education Partnerships, CCSNH Support02:35:01.760 - 11:03:37 AM; Supported HB1202 to adjust RSA for flexibility in using dual enrollment scholarships. Explained that the previous amendment unintentionally limited access for higher-credit courses like LNA and welding. The bill allows policies to maximize financial support for students in high-need workforce programs while maintaining flexibility for evolving needs. Answered committee questions on funding (state appropriation of $3 million), administration (flat rate for high school classes, half tuition for campus classes), and policy vagueness, emphasizing empowerment for the community college system to manage funds effectively. Noted 11,000 students participated last year, earning 60,000 credits.
HB153: Representative Rick Lad Support03:34:53.520 - 12:03:29 PM; Sponsored HB153 to create a statewide database of school maps for emergency responders. Provided historical context from the 2018 NH School Safety Task Force, which led to over $50 million in infrastructure funding. Described the bill's goal to standardize digitized maps for all schools, using vendors like Critical Response Group via RFP. Funds ($10 million in HB2) already appropriated; estimated $2.8 million for mapping all schools, with 5-year maintenance included. Emphasized benefits for quick, uniform response, including room numbering and infrastructure details. Addressed questions on funding disbursement, renumbering (not required, uses grid system), availability to non-public schools at cost, and integration with existing plans.
HB153: Nate Green, Division Director, Department of Education Information Only03:59:21.600 - 12:27:57 PM; Provided details on the project under the Bureau of School Facilities. Confirmed funding from existing appropriations to standardize maps for multi-agency responses in compatible formats. Explained live, GPS-enabled maps with grid overlays (e.g., A1, B4) for precise navigation, verified via in-person walkthroughs to account for building changes. Outlined RFP timeline (release in 1-2 weeks, 3-4 months to contract, work starting summer). Addressed security (US-based storage, no right-to-know access, shared only during emergencies), multiple vendors, 5-year no-cost maintenance, minor update costs post-5 years, and lack of current statewide system, noting it's not reinventing but standardizing for broad access.
HB1729: Representative Dave Luno, Hopkinton and Bow, NH Support04:14:16.159 - 12:42:52 PM; Sponsored HB1729 to create a centralized ERP service for statewide data management, inspired by challenges in Claremont School District's financial reconstruction. Emphasized the need for reliable, centralized data to prevent issues like unreliable ledgers and invoices, with implications across the state. Noted the bill's role in enabling better data use and action, tying into broader discussions on education infrastructure.
HB1729: Representative Dave Luno, Hopkinton and Bow, NH Support04:17:22.399 - 12:45:58 PM; Representative Luno explains the origin of the bill, inspired by discussions on improving school district financial management after issues in Claremont. He proposes a centralized, cloud-based ERP system managed by the Department of Education to standardize data entry, approvals, and reporting. This would enhance visibility into statewide spending, especially for special education, Medicaid reimbursements, and forms like MS-25, reducing manual work and improving governance. He defers to experts from the department and a vendor for details and welcomes amendments.
HB1729: Representative Spielsburg Information Only04:22:10.560 - 12:50:46 PM; Representative Spielsburg questions the voluntary nature of the bill, citing a potential conflict with the goal of uniformity for statewide data collection. He suggests piloting with six districts and eventually requiring all to migrate for full benefits.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response) Support04:23:13.439 - 12:51:49 PM; In response, Luno agrees on the merits of uniformity for data access and suggests incentives like expedited reimbursements to encourage adoption, while deferring to experts on implementations in other states.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (follow-up on MS-25) Support04:24:22.880 - 12:52:58 PM; The representative questions why submission to a centralized platform couldn't be required like the current MS-25 form, highlighting problems in special education data and timeliness of audits, using Claremont as an example.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to follow-up) Support04:25:36.000 - 12:54:12 PM; Luno concurs that a mandatory system would improve timeliness and statewide analysis, referencing missing audits from multiple districts. He supports considering amendments based on department input and other states' experiences.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (phasing question) Information Only04:26:43.359 - 12:55:19 PM; The representative asks if implementation should be phased, starting small with MS-25 or special education, or go comprehensive including HHS and community colleges.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to phasing) Support04:27:53.199 - 12:56:29 PM; Luno views it as a good question, citing university system examples, and argues against inching forward slowly, suggesting an RFP to determine the best approach for comprehensive needs like special education and Medicaid.
HB1729: Representative Ricky Support04:28:58.720 - 12:57:34 PM; Representative Ricky supports centralization and uniformity but expresses concern over the indeterminable local costs in the fiscal note, questioning if it would be an unfunded mandate, noting their district already uses Tyler on subscription.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to Ricky) Support04:30:31.199 - 12:59:07 PM; Luno clarifies the bill only calls for an RFP, not implementation, so costs are unknown yet. He emphasizes starting the process to gather information.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (ERP definition) Information Only04:31:44.159 - 1:00:20 PM; The representative praises the bill's comprehensive ERP definition covering financials, HR, student info, etc., and questions doing less than full integration for statewide standardization.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to definition) Support04:32:54.159 - 1:01:30 PM; Luno agrees on the ideal of interoperable modules but notes the definition might be broader than needed, as student info is already state-managed, and supports the goal of a unified system.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (other states) Information Only04:34:08.320 - 1:02:44 PM; The representative asks if Luno researched other states with similar systems.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to other states) Support04:34:08.320 - 1:02:44 PM; Luno confirms research but defers to the vendor for details on implementations.
HB1729: Representative Fellows Information Only04:35:15.359 - 1:03:51 PM; Representative Fellows notes the state's multi-million dollar ERP implementations and suggests integrating with the existing state system.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to Fellows) Support04:35:15.359 - 1:03:51 PM; Luno supports exploring upgraded software for managing large education budgets over legacy systems.
HB1729: Representative Peoples Information Only04:36:27.438 - 1:05:03 PM; Representative Peoples envisions a unified chart of accounts, processes, and training across districts for interchangeability.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to Peoples) Support04:36:27.438 - 1:05:03 PM; Luno agrees on uniform interface and statewide training for business officers, deferring to other states' and NH higher ed experiences.
HB1729: Representative Kok Support04:37:39.039 - 1:06:15 PM; Representative Kok asks if Luno would support amending voluntary to mandatory.
HB1729: Representative Luno (response to Kok) Support04:37:39.039 - 1:06:15 PM; Luno fully supports amending to mandatory, citing Claremont issues, and welcomes committee input on best practices from other states.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (fiscal note) Information Only04:39:59.440 - 1:08:35 PM; The representative reads from the fiscal note on outdated systems and asks how inefficiencies were identified and if the department has moved toward centralization.
HB1729: Holly Shet, Tyler Technologies Support04:40:34.878 - 1:09:10 PM; Holly Shet introduces Tyler's 30-year public sector experience, noting four states (Kentucky, Arizona, Oklahoma, South Carolina) using their enterprise ERP. In NH, they serve many districts with unified software for financials, HR, etc. She supports the RFP process, emphasizes cloud-based SaaS with disaster recovery, and commits to legal review. She addresses concerns on MS-25 (may not directly produce but varies by product), pricing (tiered by enrollment, customizable, includes support), and RFP response (they participate regardless of immediate purchase, building relationships). She stresses uniform charts of accounts for reporting and phasing implementations carefully to avoid disruption.
HB1729: Representative Maguire Information Only04:45:48.480 - 1:14:24 PM; Representative Maguire asks if Tyler's software produces MS-25 and how pricing works (per student/employee, rough costs).
HB1729: Holly Shet (response) Information Only04:45:48.480 - 1:14:24 PM; Shet says it may not directly produce MS-25 (needs confirmation), pricing is tiered by enrollment for SaaS fee, customizable with add-ons; can't give state-wide ballpark without RFP details.
HB1729: Representative Papovich Information Only04:47:50.400 - 1:16:26 PM; Representative Papovich, with ERP experience, questions why a company would respond to an RFP without purchase commitment, given low appropriation.
HB1729: Holly Shet (response to Papovich) Information Only04:48:55.280 - 1:17:31 PM; Shet says they review RFPs legally and respond if feasible, even without immediate buy, to build relationships; clients are priority.
HB1729: Representative Spillsbury Information Only04:51:01.120 - 1:19:37 PM; Representative Spillsbury clarifies the bill's RFP leads to voluntary district adoption, not state contract, questioning if it achieves standardization without customization limits.
HB1729: Holly Shet (response to Spillsbury) Support04:52:17.600 - 1:20:53 PM; Shet agrees, noting they work closely on RFPs for state-level implementation; uniform charts are key for reporting, as differing accounts hinder analysis like in special ed.
HB1729: Representative Burton Information Only04:53:20.480 - 1:21:56 PM; Representative Burton shares implementation challenges from college experience, stressing respecting employees, phasing, avoiding oversold claims, and equipment costs.
HB1729: Holly Shet (response, partial) Information Only04:54:27.440 - 1:23:03 PM; Shet begins responding but is interrupted; emphasizes careful implementation.
HB1729: Representative Fellows (clients question) Information Only04:55:41.920 - 1:24:17 PM; Representative Fellows asks about Tyler's NH school clients (number, size, names).
HB1729: Holly Shet (response to Fellows) Information Only04:55:41.920 - 1:24:17 PM; Shet reports ~150 districts using School ERP Pro, 33 municipalities on Enterprise; offers references but respects privacy; clarifies counting by access points (districts/schools).
HB1729: Dr. Green, NH Department of Education Information Only04:58:06.240 - 1:26:42 PM; Dr. Green describes DOE's data approaches: Alma SIS for student data (state-contracted, voluntary local use with translation for non-Alma); opposite end is Excel reporting. For ERP, scaling benefits increase with participation; voluntary vs. mandatory affects efficiency. Notes joint DOE-DOT expertise for implementation, policy input from finance team. Alma is closest to ERP experience. On MS-25/DOE-25: moving to unified chart of accounts via grant; from paper to automated Excel, but more modernization needed via upcoming RFI. Consults stakeholders like ASBO regularly.
HB1729: Unidentified Representative (DOE expertise) Information Only05:00:43.360 - 1:29:19 PM; Asks about DOE's daily ERP management expertise.
