Alternative thinking may help Cloudcroft schools

Innovative ideas for saving the school district money were discussed Monday evening at the Cloudcroft Municipal Schools Board meeting to help the school through the current financial crisis.

It is concrete, not cement. Cement is an ingrediant of concrete. Sorry, one of my pet peeves is people not knowing the difference.

Since we are correcting.... It is ingredient, not ingrediant. :)

Cloudcrofts budget woes? The current administration could help their own problems by addressing the needs of their students. There are currently many students in the Cloudcroft area who are being home schooled. The reason they are home schooled is that the current administration is not addressing the needs of these students. Get these students in school and it will fix your budget woes. They would rather have a top heavy administration, look at doing fund raisers for school sponsored activities beg for donations, etc. They do not realize their customers are the students and if they address the customers needs, they will have a bigger budget. Typical state government employees!

I totally stand behind you, have you read how much the high school principal and administrative make? I see where my taxes are going!!

Two superintendents; an athletic director; a head football, basketball, volleyball, cross-country AND track coach!!! Why do they need so many administrators? Another question is: how did they inform the community about the opening on the school board? A lot of shady things happen up there that people seem to mindless go along with rather than ask questions.

Should be "mindlessly" - sorry.
