dan...I don't believe in "closing" the schools. Just address fairly:
As was in the press:
....................................................................
a) The state auditor's report, which covers the period July 2009 to December
2010, ........ The Asbury Park School District continues to have the highest
per-pupil expenditures among the 31 districts formerly known as the Abbotts. In
2009-10, the cost per pupil was $26,782.
b)The estimated cost in 2010-11 was lower, but still about $5,600 higher than
the 2009-10 Abbott district average.
c) While enrollment was declining nearly 40 percent over the last decade, costs
were climbing, in no small measure because staffing was reduced only 13
percent.
d)Asbury Park's student-to-teacher ratio was 8.7 students to 1 teacher the
second-lowest ratio among the Abbott districts. The state average is 12.4 to 1.
e)The district also is top-heavy with administrators about double the state
average for K-12 districts.
