God,,,I hate reading between the lines. In depth report needs to be shown or researched. My eyes are killing me all that is not said if TRUE. Question,,,Did parents move? If NOT;;;3 cheers for the economy for parents can afford better situation for their children. Don’t forget the sweet spot here. That means that these parents are still paying the same taxes so there is a itzzy-bitzzy more money per student in the system. Is less ,,,,,,,MORE$$$$??
If I may. Our Numbers are not waning. Our Region’s appeal is just becoming more selective.
Do you think other people will get it?
If I may. The Sanders PR firm has not been hired to promote enrollment. Their primary function is to provide damage control for the actions of my board and Central Office. Once again, Mr. Miles is unable to comprehend the high levels of the educational stratosphere in which I reside.
Ha! So that’s the real reason! Well they need more than that under Bob’s Chairmanship!
Sounds all like the the days of W.B. in Texas no child left behind when Rod Paige was cooking the books in the Texas Education Problems. Perhaps the Chairs seat should be disposed of as known. Perhaps the Principals be left do as they do best in managing their own school on focus of funneling the students on the same goal of High School and future goals, and let the teachers do what they do best,,,,TEACH!! So, who sits in the Chair of Logic and Knowledge? Believe me there is only one person there that can. Figure it out people of intelligence,,,,,,but get it right…you will pave the way for other schools to follow ,,,,,, THRU-OUT the State.
