I commented on your misrepresenting the facts and figures on the R-7 schools. You delete any thing that tells the truth. You are one issue nut that will be defeated in the April election. Most people feel that you are a crazy person with crazy ideas. You are play loose with the real truth and facts and figures. You do not even understand the difference between Million and Billion. You must have had a very poor education. I notice you do not claim to be educated but want to run a school district. FAT CHANCE. I notice that your postings have 0 comments "I wonder why"? on Money Spent On Special Education

You stated the following:At the recent candidate forum Patti Buie stated that the Lee's Summit School District spends $3 on every special education student for every $1 they spend on regular education students.Patti Buie did not make that statement it was someone else. Maybe you were so in involved in your special agenda you did not pay attention to who said what.You stated:According to the district, there are 17,000 students enrolled. 1,900 are special needs students. Their budget is $200,00,000,000. They spend $15,000,000,000 on special needs. According to Texas Instruments, Their special needs students represent 11% of their enrollment. They spend 7.5% of their budget on special needs. And let's not forget that they get extra money from the federal government for children on IEPs.This part of you post just does not make sense. I don’t know were you were educated but you did not learn basic math. You also said $200,00,000,000 if the commas are moved to denote money this would be on Summary of the Truly Agreed Version of the Bill SS HB 2023

Missouri Schools - The Washington Post

Missouri Schools - The Washington Post Some schools brag about their high passing rates on AP or IB, meaning the percentage of test-takers who scored 3, 4 or 5 on the 5-point AP exam or 4, 5, 6 or 7 on the 7-point IB exam. Passing scores make students eligible for credit at many colleges and universities. I decided not to count passing rates in this way because I found that many high schools kept those rates artificially high by allowing only top students to take the courses. AP, IB and AICE are important because they give average students a chance to experience the trauma of heavy college reading lists and long, analytical college examinations. Research has found that even low-performing students who got a 2 on an AP test did significantly better in college than similar students who did not take AP. On the list, we also give readers a sense of how well each school’s students are doing on the tests by posting the Equity and Excellence rate, which is the percentage of all graduating s

My Letter Requesting To Become A Board Member

Tucker 1200 SE London Way Lee’s Summit, MO   64081 816-554-3017 autism@kc.rr.com Lee’s Summit R-7 School District C/o Linda Ismert, Board Secretary Stansberry Leadership Center 301 NE Tudor Road Lee’s Summit, MO   64086 Ms Ismert I would like to submit my name for the position on the Lee’s Summit R-7 School Board.   As you know, I have expressed an interest in being on the school board in the past.   On my first attempt I only lost by 2% which would indicate that the voters have an interest in me being on the board as well.   I would think that the voters’ wishes would be taken into consideration. I have a strong relationship with many of the districts’ families and I can help to bridge the gap between them and the district.   I understand the commitment to the time and energy required each week for meetings, phone calls, conversations, visits to schools, and professional development seminars and workshops.   I already do that with the families that I work with and can c
