[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]So the real reason for the deficit is the ESOL. How come the county just doesn't come out and say it?

I don't think you can pinpoint any one reason for the deficit. All budget items contribute to the bottom line. Any many factors affect the amount available for spending. [/quote]

Not really, if you add up everything else it's barely a scratch compared to ESOL which increased by 48 million and I bet every year it's increased by a lot making it's total cost dwarf the deficit. I guarantee if ESOL was cut or eliminated FCPS would be cashflow positive for the foreseeable future unless they start doing poor investments.[/quote]

But then they wouldn't actually be educating the percentage of the children who need ESOL.  So that sort of defeats the purpose of public education, no?[/quote]

well o.k., if a purpose of public edication is to educate undocumented aliens.[/quote]

again - we don't know that all users of ESOL are undocumented.  [/quote]
