RANDOLPH, Vt. (WCAX) – Randolph High Schools girl’s volleyball team has been banned from its own locker room while school officials investigate a conflict involving a transgender student on the team.

Gov. Tom Wolf joined educators, elected officials and students at Aliquippa High School to tout the $3.7 billion investments in public education over his eight years in office.“The future of Pennsylvania, the future of our country, it runs through places like this,” Wolf said Thursday. “It runs through Aliquippa High.” Wolf said this investment started with $1.9 billion over the past seven years. “That wasn’t enough to give our students and our communities, our schools, the resources they needed to make sure that we have the future that we all needed,” Wolf said.This year’s budget alone almost matched that with …

I’ve long been an advocate for price transparency in healthcare. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (aka CMS) has recently taken action that requires hospitals to post their prices online, which should boost competition and help you shop around to save money. If memory serves, the price posting only applies to a limited number of services. I presume the rare hospitals that don’t accept Medicare and Medicaid payments are exempt.
