That is a waste of money. Chickasaw Super is probably one of the top paid Supers if he only has about 1000 students.
The funding needs to be tied to the student. Each school gets funded based on enrollment. If you can't make it work with that then you best get to selling cookies, doughnuts and flower bulbs.

And generally, the people who have kids in these systems do. Lots of fund raisers here in Saraland for the schools. It's all good until it's your kid who goes to an overcrowded school with the bare minimum while your good tax money mainly goes to Prichard and down the toilet. Again, maybe your county can make it work, but seeing these three cities break away has been a blessing to our side of the county.
