Soon enough, they will cut fine and visual arts, and unneccesary gym classes from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. The superintendent denotes that he will drop 50 teachers/Assistants in undetermined courses, most likely music, gym and art, also Self Contained classes. When Eric Smith (if he is still in Anne Arundel County, please PM me) was superintendent, he would not have let that happen. The Special Needs class is supposed to have an assistant and a liason per every 15 kids. Just a fortnight ago, he said that he was going to dismiss some security guards, and every school is limited to 2 security guards. Guess at what happened on Wednesday??? A 17 year old Sophomore was sent to gaol because he brought a loaded handgun to school.
Thanks to the economic recession.
