[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 344341, member: 6705"] We have issues around here. Overcrowding is one of them. Also we have an "Excellent" rating, but I can tell you from some of the things I have seen, if they don't like your kid they shove them out one way or another. Underperforming students end up elsewhere. But we're building new schools?! OK, I can see adding to the ones we have - plenty of land to do it, too. Upgrading and remodeling. A local district - not ours - tore down 8 schools and rebuilt them from the ground up. All the same blueprint. Pretty, yes. BUT - ! It's a poor district with an "Academic Emergency" rating. Do they think a new building will help students learn? As for those supplies - I can see where kleenex, dry erase markers, etc. might be needed. In our district it is considered part of the school fees. If you don't supply these things, your kid doesn't get grades. [/QUOTE]
