What would it take

1) For people to realize that taking a big school, dividing it up into four smaller schools, each with it's own administration, will not ultimately save any money. Theoretically, you want all of those teachers to stay with the school they founded. So, eventually, they will cost more than they do.

2)For people to realize that there have been small schools before and many of them have been closed. Small is good, but not enough.

3) For people to actually think about what their kids are learning. Do any of these parents LOOK at the tests their kids take?

I have said the exact things about administrations many times.

No, the parents only see the grades and are happy. No one believes how low the standards have gotten.
