Detroit may close half of its public schools
Without aid, DPS may close half of its schools | detnews.com | The Detroit News

Quote:
Detroit Public Schools would close nearly half of its schools in the next two years, and increase high school class sizes to 62 by the following year, under a deficit-reduction plan filed with the state.

The plan, part of a monthly update Emergency Financial Manager Robert Bobb gives the Department of Education, was filed late Monday to provide insight into Bobb's progress in his attempt to slash a $327 million deficit in the district to zero over the next several years. Under it, the district would slim down from 142 schools now to 72 during 2012-13.
If I were living in Detroit, I'd get the hell out as fast as I can. Then again, dwelling in dollar a month houses in heavily blighted areas is mighty tempting.

Did anyone in the unions take a pay freeze?
Pitch in to pay for their benefits?
A minor cut to pension?

I'm betting no.

So they pull this stunt betting that the rest of America will be forced to pony up through taxes and keep the broken system going.

When my kids were going to school in Japan (they have dual citizenship) class sizes were usually around 50 and everyone did just fine.

Class size is a ruse to increase the number of unionized teachers in a school. Americas education problem is poor curriculum and out of control students.

But Americans don't wanna' talk about that.

None of this is being done to decrease the number of students in classes, these schools are being closed and teachers are being fired because the cities cannot afford to keep these schools open and to pay the teachers anymore, they could give a damn if there is 90 kids in each class.

Wanna reduce class size?

End mandated attendance.

That will get the people that don't want to be there out, and the people that do want to be there will thrive.
