All I know is that there appears to be no pulling out of the cycle, and thusly, no saving the system. The parents that care are putting their kids in private schools. Teachers who are worth a damn are following suit.
The two largest factors are parents and school board administrators.
You can't control parents and their lack of interest in their own children.
You need people at the top that are willing to make those tough decisions and do what's best for the district as a whole. Unfortunately, EBRPSS isn't interested in the kids under their care, but rather doing everything they can to protect their image and their personal interests and it shows. The fact that CB is blaming charter schools tells you everything you need to know. It's never their fault and it's always someone else's responsibility to fix the problem. If nothing else, she really is a true representative of her constituency.

Agreed.
And until the demographic changes and/or makes adjustments to its attitudes toward education, the system is virtually unfixable.

Also have to have strong administrators at the school level: administrators who have high expectations; who set rules and consequences and stick to them; who aren't afraid of backlash from parents. Once the students realize that there are consequences for their actions, and that the principals aren't fricking around, they eventually start to conform.
