  1. Instead of asking for more funding, why not fire 90% of IPS Administrators?
    Why are there over 5 Administrators for each classroom teacher?
    The goal of each teacher seems to be to get moved up and out of the classroom to a cushy job.
    Cut needless spending first. Pay actual teachers well. Add discipline and expel bad kids.
    Then ask for add’l funding from us.

    1. Part of the problem is a lot of public sector jobs are just workfare, and the party that controls our city doesn’t dare reduce jobs that benefit its voters.

  2. One of the biggest reason why I don’t miss living in Marion County anymore….continuing to pay higher taxes and referendums for more money to IPS with continued failed outcomes, wasted money etc….

  3. I don’t doubt that most of the projects planned would be good investments . . .

    However, the legislature (or whoever is responsible) needs to change the law that requires public schools to sell buildings to charter schools (or anyone for that matter) for $1. They need to be able to sell whatever buildings they don’t need or are not using for fair market value. That is what a responsible organization would do.

    The school system needs to be run like a business–efficiently, effectively and with no workfare employees. We need to give them every opportunity outside of unlimited funding to educate the children in their district.

    1. Ditto on not being able to sell the buildings for market value and putting the money back into the system before asking for more from taxpayers.

  4. This is the same School Board that appointed Stephen Lane to the Indy Library Board. Lane is a member of the Party of Socialism and Liberation, a Marxist organization. I asked each member of the School Board why they thought that was a good choice. Not a single Board member had the courtesy to respond. I can’t support the decision-making of this group.
