 What is this going on with the schools now?? Anyone?

Well I cannot believe this either why are we taking more from schools more money.............

And this time I hear that teachers are being laid off too 20,000 is what I heard over the weekend state wide layoffs WOW!!

Mr Governor what is going on? Where did all that budget go and I hear that Gray Davis is being asked to come back to help fix things we need a Governor you guys this is just not right!!

If our schools take another hit only the rich will be actually going to schools the poor will really be neglected and there is no middle class now,Everyone will say where did public schools go?? So what is going on Ideas????

California has a $10 Billion Structural Budget Deficit due to the benefits and services to Illegal Aliens. If you can't figure it out, I don't know what else you need to know. Figure it out!!!

Although dfd is on the money about social benefits for non-citizens, there are other contributing factors to this dilemma. I wrote a piece, or was it a comment, about ELL in California and how the fiscal impact that state mandates burdens our budget. I had did some calculations on the cost per student per school year. Since then I have recalculated based on the amount of hours total for 1.6 million ELL and I came up with the figure $6.48 BILLION per school year. that is just for educator salary, no materials.

Now add to that the wasteful spending of autopilot state spending formulas and you get a feeling of why we are in the predicament were in, never mind that it probably should have happened years earlier.

We have 2 Schools here that we fought for a long time. They had to stop on one because get this ok? The area neede to be checked for bombs that were not detonated. So we have a Hihgh School that only takes 9th Graders and there is no cafeteria and a few major parts not operating.
The Elementary is the one where they are looking for bombs. But every year we spend the "extra" tax they ask for and then before we know it there isn't enough money to finish again. So there are about 750 kids in a School built for 350. No Cafeteria and the temperature here can get up past 118. It is all crap if you ask me.
We did or the City hired real loosers for City Managers.
So take from the Schools and anything they can then wonder why kids are doing some of the bad things they do. Not all just some.
