[keely emerinemix]

The charter school is under the management oversight of MSD and their students are counted in the enrollment data districts report.

I’m no
expert, and maybe Keely can weigh in here, but I believe they are to some
extent.

I believe that the current school levy funding
ignoring vocational students needs is highly discriminatory. If you
don't agree me, perhaps these statistics will change your mind. 









 









Who in your opinion needs more support from the
community?:









 





Paradise Creek Regional Alt School





Rank #102









Total Students(2005 - 2006*): 32

Fulltime teachers: 1.5

Student/Teacher Ratio: 21.3

Eligible for discounted/free lunch: 16 ( 50 %)









 









Am. Indian/Alaska Native: 1 ( 3 %)

Asian/Pacific Islander: 0 ( 0 %)

Hispanic: 2 ( 6 %)

African American: 1 ( 3 %)

White: 28 ( 88 %)

Unspecified: 0 ( 0 %)









OR





Moscow Senior High School





Ranks 11th in state 









 









Total Students(2005 - 2006*): 603

Fulltime teachers: 34.5

Student/Teacher Ratio: 17.5

Eligible for discounted/free lunch: 102 ( 17 %)









 









Am. Indian/Alaska Native: 10 ( 2 %)

Asian/Pacific Islander: 16 ( 3 %)

Hispanic: 18 ( 3 %)

African American: 10 ( 2 %)

White: 549 ( 91 %)

Unspecified: 0 ( 0 %)









 









It seems like it is a common pattern to better fund
those with the greatest advantage to began with. Why is it too much to ask that
the MSD promise to allocate more funding so the kids that cannot afford lunch
get the same opportunities in a public education system as kids that can afford
to buy lunch everyday?









 









Best,









 









Donovan
