(AP) A bill giving Georgia school districts more flexibility has passed a key legislative committee. The measure would allow school districts to increase class size by one student in kindergarten through fifth grade and by two students in sixth grade through high school through 2013. It also lifts state controls on how schools spend their state funding. Jackson County Republican Representative Tommy Benton sponsored the bill that cleared the House Education Committee Thursday.
