Does the Superintendent and School Board hire the most QUALIFIED, absolutely not. The school district would not rank 98th from the bottom if they did. Alot of big bucks being passed out for failure. This would be a great project for the new mayor elect, start a residency rule, you must live here, or move here to be employed. Present employees included, starting from the top down, city and school. If you choose not to reside here, your gone, fired, and a replacement soon to follow, its called growth. Will it happen, probably not, but it makes sense to me.
