Consequences?

What consequences......if you read the article or attended the meeting the key fact that you need to pull from the info presented is that teachers will have to re-apply for their positions if the state takes over the district. Price would welcome this because there is a list of teachers he wants to be rid of. He lets the state do the firing and he comes out being able to say "I told you so." The district does not want it to get out though that as a parent that you might be able to enroll your children in another district until SISD gets their house in order academically. Check it out. Those parents that value education will be willing to drive their kids to Bellville or Columbus or Brazos. Which kids will go? The academically strong ones which will make the pass/fail ratio for TAKS even more difficult to fix. Thus the reason to be mum on this information. Time will tell.
