There are students who live like gypsies. They transfer from one district to another. They have many absences and bad grades. Some students have questionable transcripts. Open campus - little or no participation.
Open cafeteria leads to fewer kids signing up for free or reduced-priced lunch program.
Students transfer from one school to another without the proper paperwork. There is need for an improved student tracking system. Every district sends records to TEA differently. Students move to out of state districts and cannot be tracked. Students leave school and enter the workforce.
