Study to Determine the Impact of School System Organization on Economic Development in Our Community
Few people will disagree that economic development is the fuel which propels the growth of a community. The availability of top-notch education is a major component of the engine which drives economic growth. The Task Force for the Study of School System Organization on Economic Development in Our Community is charged with studying the relationship between economic growth and the impact local school organization has on our community’s economic development potential.
It is not our mission to make a decision, render an opinion or influence the citizenry with respect to issues involving the structure of our local school systems. Our mission is to facilitate a study to determine the impact of school system organization on economic development. To this end, our operations will be transparent, our approach balanced and our members will be accessible to the public.
Our tasks include the facilitation of data collection by third parties who will provide information related to school system organization. We hope to ensure the free flow of information between those charged with the collection of data and the citizens and businesses in our community. In undertaking our tasks, we realize many citizens may see our charge as being school consolidation. For this committee, to consolidate or not to consolidate is not the question; neither is it necessarily the answer. We seek to advance our community through a genuinely balanced scientific survey to determine whether or not our present educational systems will enhance our community’s economic growth and development.
