It is no wonder you have so much violence and ignorance in the Jacksonville Public schools. When the school refuses to deal with the problem teachers, progress and reform will never be an accomplishment in the Jacksonville public school system. Actually i have two gifted daughters. One is currently enrolled in duval school systems elementary curriculum. Our children are wandering and lost.
Smaller schools provide an environment that is intimate.
The children are recognized by administrators. The high schools are dealing with a HUGE attendance problem. Skipping classes and skipping school is entirely out of control. A smaller student base should make it easier for administrators to track and protect our children. Smaller schools are necessary with ongoing communication with parents.
