All our new teachers are pretty evenly distributed between elementary and secondary schools. |
Part of the rationale for that is not that we're growing in population, but that we have one school [North Elementary] that we haven't made any major renovations to in years. We have 12 trailers sitting at that school. It's just not an efficient facility. |
This is a new program and I think it is one that is needed in the county to train our young people. |
We anticipate that we will see anywhere from 600 to 1,200 new students. Just in recent days we have enrolled a large number of kids in both elementary and secondary schools. |
We just recently finished a facilities study and that will go a long way with preparing us. |
We've got some time and we have to use that time and our resources wisely. |
