Also, I think that the school needs better and more electives. Although the district has books that can be checked out, they run out early and never get any more. Beginning band students are pushed in to learning an instrument that they can afford instead of what they want to play. For example, if the district has many trombones and no flutes, a student who can pay for an instrument would be pushed to play the flute so the available trombones can be given to students who cannot afford to pay or rent an instrument. Facilities Use and Management Micro-management in the schools.
Facilities are poor, either none or poor air conditioning.
Buildings are broken and old for the taxes we pay. I do not believe it is just because we have limited funds. I see new schools all across Texas in towns with less population and lower economies. I'm curious about funds that should be budgeted for maintenance and improvements. I don't understand why we must wait until everything is broken to fix it.
