As I have mentioned previously, it never ends.
The county and the schools have a real challenge on their hands because, despite voters approving a whopping $2 billion in school bond debt in recent years, even that massive funding effort is leaving a lot of planned school capital projects unfunded due to inflation and cost overruns…
Chairman of the Board of Commissioners Skip Alston is already talking openly about the need for another giant school bond referendum in the not too distant future. He has suggested that the referendum needs to be $1 billion or more.
This is occurring when the number of students attending traditional public schools has been decreasing due to charter schools, home schooling and declining fertility.
We have less students, but we need more brand new schools. That is the mindset.
When a county is being so severely mismanaged, perhaps the state needs to step in and take action. This is a problem unlikely to be fixed by voters.
Too many administrators in the GCS system. ( and those are incompetent )
You are precisely right, Fred. The whole edifice needs to be fumigated.
