Thanks, I never would have found any of this on my own - and, yes, that is a problem. (Note to PPS webmaster - how about a link from the homepage in easy to understand terminology? )

Can you provide the url, because I can't find anything that resembles the plan as Anna describes it? The website has no search function and is poorly arranged, and I can't even find the number of students presently enrolled - this is not a case where voters should be told to "do your homework" but rather: here is the information you need.
Your attitude is precisely the problem, with the incestuous politics, clannish in-fighting, and complete lack of communication that characterizes the dysfunctional leadership with the Schools.
Please, point us to the report. That would be very helpful.report abuse

Why don't you all take a peek over the PPS website and you will notice that the info you seek is already there.
THe comprehensive plan was passed in 2002. The plan
was dependent upon which elementary school reached the top of the state's list first. Clifford reached first. Some of us need to do our homework before forcing the rest of us to listen to the uninformed.report abuse
