Quick look at an obvious question from public TV . . .
Take Note - Our Schools: Does Zipcode Matter?
To be fair, while suburban schools are slowly suffering the wrath of statewide budget cuts . . . A cursory look at test scores and the overall level of violence that takes place at urban core institutions of learning will provide an easy answer for this topic that's talked to death.

ReplyDeleteCan't even stomach to watch the whole thing - as usual Carpenter has to keep talking. If 60% of learning is effected by things outside the school WHY did he choose to waste so much money in HM on his pet projects. WHY wasn't there more of an effort to understand the 60% and find ways and resources to help address those issues. I hope and pray that the HM School Board will look for a replacement outside the district - anyone already in the district will continue Carpenter's agenda of resume building with no positive outcome for the kids. The Board needs to find someone with a proven track record of working with districts like HM, not another blow hard with NO experience. LS you are in for a ride - build a fire and hold his feet to it or you'll find yourself in deeper debt with a bunch of his cockamamie ideas and before you know it he's on his way to the next high paying job.
