Deal's plan to overhaul the state's method for funding K-12 schools may face a new challenge, with lawmakers questioning proposals put forward by the governor's staff. Deal announced his Education Reform Commission in January and initially set an August deadline for recommending changes to the complicated formula used to determine school funding. At the request of lawmakers on a subcommittee charged with that task, Deal recently extended that deadline until December. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
