She's got to be one of the most organized high school students. She finds a way to do everything.

I'm 53. I don't care about high school students. I find them irritating and uninformed.

This will include people who can't come in the morning. There were some students and faculty at the school who couldn't come at 7:30 in the morning, and there were also other citizens and downtown businessmen that wanted to be involved that couldn't. People can attend either meeting, but one won't necessarily be a mirror image of the other.

Currently, we have about 10,500 students. In five years, we expect to have around 11,500 - gaining about 200 per year.

It?s very dismal. Nationwide, federal grants haven?t kept pace with tuition, so students have to borrow more. Loan indebtedness is soaring.

We don't have a plan if a pandemic comes around, we can't turn 53 buildings, 32,000 students and 1,800 teachers into a kind of virtual school. We couldn't even do that in a year. We don't have a plan for sending curriculum by e-mail to students. We'll be doing whatever we can in the best interest of the community. . . . And we would do whatever kind of enrichment activities we could.
