(JEFFERSON CITY, FESTUS) 115th District State Rep. Cyndi Buchheit-Courtway is hoping a bill she sponsored concerning Mental Health Efforts in Public Schools will get some movement soon.

Buchheit-Courtway says she received a lot of feedback from area groups and school districts to help with the language of the bill.
