Please, pray for my school. They want to divide our current school (4000+) kids into several smaller schools. Same campus, different schools, basically. The problem is that not only do they want to divide it, they want to divide it based on program as well. Our Institute (an all-honors program, basically) would have its own and so would the others. That means that, say, because I'm in the Fine Arts Program, I could not take AP courses because the Institute school would have them (same goes for various programs and other schools). The music and arts programs would be diminished into general education requirements, because in our school of 4000 kids, we have enough to fill them and make them functioning. Massive amounts of teachers would lose jobs. The school would lose kids because of the limitations.
They've come to survey our school before for this same thing, but I've never seen the teachers so worried before. The state has done this to a school in Brooklyn before, just last year. The teachers in it said everything was done perfectly, but the school was given a harsh critique and now it is divided.
Our school is one of the top schools on the East Coast. It is in the top ten schools of the state. There is no reason, other than our current mayor's agenda against large schools, for this to happen.
Please pray that this does not happen to my school.
