[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who is the person in special ed who has proposed all of these changes to the ESY schedule? As someone who has worked ESY for the last 10+ years, I’m very concerned about the impacts of these changes. [/quote]

Don't underestimate how much Taylor diddles in areas in which he shouldn't. The habit of tearing things up to reorganize in ways yet unknown is harming our school system.[/quote]

I support his efforts to do this.  The status quo was/is not working and he is moving quickly to try to find solutions.  The “harm” you mention is speculative.[/quote]

I mean every year he has been superintendent he has had to extend the school year because he can't design a calendar that accounts for even a small number of weather-related closures. It will happen again next year. For this year he reduced instructional days to 181 for his useless transition day.

If he can't even make a realistic calendar that doesn't require multiple changes in the spring, what makes you think his larger changes are a step in the right direction?[/quote]

Yeah, Taylor is incredibly weak on logistics, beginning with one that should be relatively routine: building a school-year calendar. This means that he will probably be gone by the beginning of 2028, when the full impact of his poorly constructed regional programs, and his inability to fix the inherent structural problems pursuant to that, become obvious to the county.
