[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The funds for specials should have a minimum of one fully funded art and one fully funded music teacher per school. Period. I do not care if there are 40 students or 400. This might push DCPS to make the hard decisions about closing under enrolled or too small schools or even failing schools. Don’t make schools scrimp on important things like enrich,ent.[/quote] Yes. It is unpopular, but DCPS needs to close schools with enrollment too low to make them viable. Deal is cheaper per student and has tons of offerings, in large part because it has way more kids. You can hire more specials teachers and run more clubs because more kids = more money. Whereas Eliot-Hine or Kramer should be closed because it's really expensive to offer all the basic subjects when they aren't many kids. [/quote]
