I agree concrete changes are needed, and not just visions of sugar plums dancing in our heads. I do not believe that throwing good money after bad will solve the issues that all Minnesota schools are facing, especially Minneapolis schools. Real reform around the issues of ELL and Special Ed are needed now. Better methods in dealing with children from bad home environments and absent parents need to be used. We need reform and not just another dollar. If concrete plans to address these issues and serious budgeting reform are created, then the funding for those plans should come forward.
