I don't know what goes on over there but over here the demographics are such that underperforming segments tend to have lots of kids who as a group have more trouble in school and whose parents might not be big contributors to the tax base so fewer and fewer are asked to do more and more. And as we all know, the govt solution to a problem is to throw more money at it.
About the school board meetings. Go ahead and go to the monthly public meetings, but the real business is done before so find out if the school board and superintendent (almost always a manipulative creature) have prior meetings before the public meeting. | |
