Frustration and fear and deep discouragement. Many friends who have been notified they
are on the cut list and that list goes up to 5 years with the district. Rumors that there

I don't know where in KS you are, but these circumstances
sound overly dire! Here in Lawrence we have lost 42 teachers;
that's a lot. But 50% increase in class size? No way. No A/C
or HEAT? No way.
BTW: Be on the lookout for the fed money to come down. The
class size reduction money will be a big h...See More
