Hall County School officials are weighing in with positive reactions to gubernatorial hopeful Nathan Deal's education platform that was released Tuesday.

"(Deal's plan) continues to move us in the direction of personalization and is very realistic. We are in the middle of an incredible economic downturn. It's nice to move toward math and science and remember how important it is for children to read and read well, but not pretend there's a big bag of money out there that people can take out of the back room," Hall County Superintendent Will Schofield said.
