I guess it's jump all over Maggie week? She's not wrong about the School Department needing to be ready in the event that no further funding is given. It's a problem that is seen over and over again in the School Department. They did not prepare for the fall-out that has resulted in NECAP being a mandated graduation requirement either...although they have had a few years to prepare for it. Why is the School Dept. only now "combing" (Dr. D's word not mine) through the new law requiring background checks for school volunteers when they have KNOWN since the fall that this law was going to be signed and be effective immediately....it's a pattern of 'waiting and seeing' that has so many people frustrated with the School Dept. No one wants our schools to fail and Maggie's posting reflects the same frustration many taxpayers feel. The School Dept. needs to get their message out and in a better way...and be more proactive. However, the WPS can be a shining example of the greatness of our City and City Hall needs to stop treating the WPS as if they are the poor relation that's always looking for a handout.
