Watching the news segment linked to the previous post I caught a millisecond view of a chart from a survey taken recently. Evidently it asked one question that had been asked of Duluth residents in 2007. I could be taking this out of some context but the chart asked, “Good value from investment in school”
Apparently in 2007: 74% of the responders said yes and 18% said no.
The results in 2011: 58% of the responders said yes but 35% said no.
Not a big surprise. Those are the years of the Red Plan – So far! We’ll see what the “good value” ratings are after we stick 45 kids in Advanced Placement classes.
