[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are public hearings on the new operating budget coming up on January 11th and 17th. Rather than posting complaints on reddit or DCUM, people need to show up to these hearings en masse and convey a clear message of what they want to be prioritized in the budget. Not just parents, but teachers and administrators too. And students.[/quote]

90% of the budget is already allocated to pensions, healthcare and salaries.  It’s like the Federal budget.  You’ve got demographics (more retirees than employees) and that limits flexibility for budget.  Thank your unionized work force and their smart payments to the pols you are basically f’ed.  add a tax base that’s well paid but departing to be replaced by new Americans who hear - even in rural Nicaragua - it’s the place to be.  Couldn’t happen to a sweeter place.  We were in Moco but quickly left.  The real problem has nothing to do with money - that is one toxic public school culture!  Glad their rep is crashing.[/quote]
