Russian,
You seem to be updated and well informed on this. In your opinion, what IS the solution to our public school problem?
I'm behind SG bc I feel it's an actual progressive step, and i don't think I've ever seen one of those in EBR.
But if there is a better way, I'm all ears...I think we all are.

Why do people think government is responsible for fixing cultures that produce shitty students?
For the most part, a school is only as good as it's students. All you can do is move them around or have a more selective enrollment.

Elect better people to the school board and metro council.
I don't think we have to save a village by burning it down.
Property owners in SG are short sighted if they think their city will remain the safe haven they think it will be if their biggest neighbor turns into Detroit.
Anyway, even if SG becomes its own city, it still would take a constitutional amendment passed by 2/3 of the legislature and then passed in a statewide referendum to set up a new school district.
I realize Bodi White claims it only takes a majority vote of the legislature and no statewide vote to create a new district, but the new school districts in Zachary, Central and Baker all needed a constitutional amendment passed.
There was an in depth article last week in Nola.com on that issue and the conclusion was a new SG school district would require an amendment.
Wouldn't it be ironic (and sad) if a new city is established yet the main reason its organizers wanted it, to get a new school system, never happens?
