Class size changes?

October 03rd, 2008 | Category: Florida Education Blog

Should the state scale back the class-size amendment, given current financial concerns?

Yes, it’s too expensive to count kids in each lesson.

No, kids deserve smaller classes as voters mandated.

Thanks for participating in our weekly polls. Hope you enjoy them. Please send along ideas for new ones, along with any thoughts on the Gradebook, to solochek@sptimes.com. Here’s how final

week’s question turned out.

We asked, “Should Florida reduce the size of its school districts?” You said:

  • Perhaps, but politics and finances will never let it happen. 72 votes - 40%
  • Yes, they’re too big and bloated. 69 votes - 38%
  • No, we don’t need more superintendents and school boards. 39 votes - 22%
