Schools will "look" better but you are just involved in a shell game. but are you actually educating those kids, giving them what they need or just controlling them by taking them away from their "element."<br /><br />Interesting thought, if the lift schools suddenly get an infusion of kids from the other side of town, and their scores go up accordingly, does sharmel get credit? Is lift then a success? Or will the shell game even be acknowledged in the congratulatory pr campaign?<br /><br />Here's a funny, auto correct turned sharmel into shameless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-23977647728932537082012-08-04T21:12:18.691-04:002012-08-04T21:12:18.691-04:008:25, I hope you are wrong but I have sensed the s...8:25, I hope you are wrong but I have sensed the smoke you are talking about. I am not sure though what a new busing plan would accomplish other than leave a lot of empty seats in CMS. If it is to appease Kojo and his ilk, then someone has not learned their lesson yet that nothing will appease this dempgraphic. They are addicted to getting local politicans bowing at their feet thinking they are preventing a part of town from being burned down.

He is listening alright , but I am looking for more than a listener. I think CMS needs less meetings and less downtown. More "action takers" like when they closed schools or created over testing. Make a decision and go forward. Live by your decision and be a professional. Sorry , but Heath Morrison hanging out with Ballantyne/Southpark Chamber luncheons with folks who either dont have kids or send the to CCD is not a good use of time. Much work to be done and I just dont see it other than listening. Ann Clark can give him the problems/research lists of things to fix within CMS. We the tax payers have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars over the last few years to CMS for studies. Its not news and its not new. He is starting to remind me of the fellow he replaced and I dont mean Hughie ! You know the issues and you see the lack of activity surrounding them.
