The article i read was about a school district making all the schools be the same school but in different areas which is weird i didn’t understand that much. “School districts could send their children to large regional high schools under a proposal being considered by the state Education Department.” “Combining multiple high schools into one larger high school will strengthen academic programs and save them from the budgetary chopping block, state Education Commissioner John King said. He said increasing the size of a school would mean advanced placement courses could have sufficient enrollment to justify their continuation, as could some elective courses and even sports teams.”
It would be good if our district did that i would save tons of money but that means that we wouldn’t be able to have sport games because we would be the same school. This could help save money by not cutting teachers from the school. “To save money and offset tax hikes, many schools this year have cut hundreds of teaching positions.” The only problem with the one gigantic school is how many people would enroll that would be a concern.
