[quote=Anonymous] One article I read stated county officials felt a strong need to preserve the FLES program. WTF? They would rather increase class size? I get it, we're talking a huge difference in millions, but still get rid of FLES. Class size and IAs should not be an option. I'm all for decreasing VPs, but don't they need these positions to train to be principals?
Our counselors are really busy.

I am a HUGE believer in exposing kids to the arts, but what about decreasing art and music funding? How about art half the year and music half the year instead of both? What about having businesses fund our arts programs and get a tax write off?

Enough with the level 4 business. Don't send some AAP expert in to classes now and then to come up with bullshit enrichment. My kids have gotten nothing out of it. I say keep the actual AAP programs at center schools and leave it at that.

Maybe we need to just get in bed with the devil and let corporate America fund some programs. Have some criteria. Tobacco and alcohol companies are forbidden -that sort of thing.[/quote]
