School budget cuts...no roofing

The local school district is all up in arms about needed MO $.....They tried to raise property taxes...citizens said that was a no-go...Now, they've laid-off some teachers to teach us a lesson.

The school district has became an inefficient, bureaucratic mess, as most all gov't agencies....Supervisor makes $180,000 salary w/bonus, plus perks, bennies.....There are many-many "positions" that were never necessary in years past...But they lay-off teachers?

My 10 yr old endures a full hour EVERYDAY of spanish....WTH for?

FACT; In this public school system, my 4th grader has yet to experience grammer equivilent to what he received in 1st grade, attending a montesori school.

My 6 yr old must learn the same subject matter in english, then spanish..affording her 1/2 the education of yester-year.

Hmmmm....Why not get rid of all the unecessary admn positions & cut the foreign language,(spanish) crap....in elemenry school? That would tuly save a big chunk.

We need the money to build more prisons.

Not all other cultures or countries consider education a joke or another taxpayer fund to rob.

Try home schooling. It couldn't be worse. They are dumbing down the students on purpose and those that areeducated when everyone wlse is stupid will have a great advantage in the future.
