[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eyes on the prize, people! The per-seat cost of HBW/Shriver was exactly the same as the per-seat cost of the Hamm expansion. Totally agree, recent building expenses were absurd, but what's done is done. Let's focus on how to get class sizes smaller and how to actually pay great staff competitively with Fairfax. Debating slides and "the Heights" and the Outdoor Lab won't get us there. It will require sustained pressure to the County Board to prioritize schools over their myriad vanity projects, pressure on state elected officials to fix the ridiculous underfunding of Arlington schools relative to our neighboring districts, and pressure on the School Board to cut more Syphax bloat.[/quote] Ok, I'll bite, please identify which exact positions you would cut in Syphax. I'll wait. [/quote] [b]Any positions where certified teachers are in an office while vacancies exist in classrooms, for one. That’s just grossly incompetent/ negligent.[/b] DEI can be one person. Content areas can have a coordinator, a supervisor, a director, or a specialist, but not all 4. I’d start there. [/quote] Disagree strongly. Experienced and knowledgeable teachers are precisely who you should have helping administer/manage a school system. [/quote]
