It looks like the BOE blew off the county commissioners budget work session in either an act of ignorance or defiance. Probably both.
I don't think the Good Doctor Martirano really cares about the budget. At least as far as the Stem Program goes, He has already directed his maintenance department to construct the classrooms at Spring Ridge Middle School with or without the budget increase. The equipment will be paid for by the schools yearly equipment replacement budget. The teachers will be provided by either by FTE's being freed up by retirements or whatever the county gives the BOE. What this means is somewhere, class size will increase to forward this program. Pretty slick actually, that way the affluent white children will have to go to spring ridge to take the class and this will in turn raise test scores there and prevent the state from taking over a low performing school.
