There were 20 responses to this week’s Tele-Talk question: “What do you think of making Kennett Middle a sixth-through-eighth-grade school?”
The reason there’s a decline in attendance is because of COVID, for one thing. And number two, if the town made the schools we already have more appealing, people wouldn’t be sending their kids to these charter schools. I mean, they’re taking away from the attendance right there. That’s half the problem, and they’re getting money that normal schools should. Why aren’t those people paying actual tuitions? Just much like if you sent your child to Waldorf, you used to have to pay a fee. It’s not a public school. Our public schools are now suffering as a result. It’s because you need to make it more appealing to send them to the schools we already have.
