"You think about what $250,000 could do for kids," said Larsen
Like what?
Like....improve educational quality.
Money doesn't solve everything, but in many places (especially Utah) there isn't enough money in education...and money could drastically improve the quality of education.
Good teachers, technology, smaller class sizes, etc. cost money, and lots of it. Utah's class sizes are too large (this is proven by statistics and research). 250,000 could hire 3 more teachers in many states, but in UTAH it could hire 8.
Some people just don't see the value in a good education, or if they do they think it should be free or at a reduced cost. WAKE UP UTAH!
so who doesn't have fire insurance? the contractor or the school district? if there is no insurance somebody should be fired, no pun intended, but that may hold somebody accountable, and we all know the public school system and uea does not like to hold people accountable.
pj-why did you say there isnt fire insurance?
