schools!
…There are more than 12,000
students in the Albemarle County School System. The SAT scores are 70 points
over the national average – better than Loudon County and Prince William County
schools.
81% of seniors took the SATs,
up from 71% (no date range was given) They handed out a nifty little fact sheet;
email me and I will send it to
you.
Most of the schools’ budget is
derived from the local real estate tax…. In a follow-up discussion with a
colleague, she asked why I had not queried Dr. Castner; my response is/was that
I could not formulate my inquiry in a fashion that would not have been taken in
a manner which he would have responded well.
Albemarle will spend about $10K per student next year, comparable to some of the
private schools!
I heard a new term

William County schools.

Most of the schools’ budget is
derived from the local real estate tax. In short, I was disappointed by Dr.
Castner’s immediate defensive posture. In a follow-up discussion with a
colleague, she asked why I had not queried Dr. Castner; my response is/was that
I could not formulate my inquiry in a fashion that would not have been taken in
a manner which he would have responded well. One of my shortcomings is my
bluntness. I am working on that.
