The Assistant Superintendent needs to study the line items this summer and consider education priorities. An override is probably in our future but for which items? Can we fund HS athletics outside of the school budget or should this be part of the override?
Has anyone been following the situation in the Washington, D.C. school district? The Mayor abolished the school committee, and appointed a superintendant who promptly closed 26 schools and terminated huge amounts of staff. Her belief is that enthusiasist teachers are the key to higher test scores and graduation rates. It seems that without radical changes there, the entire school system was heading towards the charter school model. A bold situation that everyone should be watching.
I heard some of the DC stuff, sounds good SC is useless.
We need some parents to serve on the SC who are committed to providing a budget for books and technology first. Do any SC members (besides Phil L.) have children in the system at the present time ?
Has anyone considered a charter school in Dartmouth? May be a way to reduce crowding at Quinn.
Shawn M has a kid in schools. The SC is too quiet they need to debate the issues and concerns, not act ignorant or anxious or defensive for that matter. let's fix stuff moving foraward, blank slate.
Abolish the school committee???
YES!
Clean the slate within the schools and start over???
YES!
Go D.C. Mayor!
Want a job in Dartmouth????
It is a shame that the SC and Russell are making bad decisions which pee people off so students can't get what they deserve.
Yes, SMc & Dr.R. say they want to educate the whole child. They should provide updated materials for every child. Instead, children don't have updated books, but they do have the opportunity to play football, after all.
