To stay the hell out of the mess, there was a reason we left county schools in the 1950's. The Co has always let us access vo-tec for our students and have tried to hold that over our heads to join, but as a graduate, life long resident I don't say ours is best but believe we don't join as we don't benefit in any plan.
You have the mess of our teachers going with the Co who stays and goes all that, plus how much of our debt do they take on etc! And i don't see us doing away with city status and going back to Co for a 15 yr savings I wont vote for it. They dont even have a legitimate plan, get serious about 3 schools and i might come on board.
