3. It is the position of some people who reside in the district that there is "fat" in the district's administrative budget and budget cuts should come out of that portion of the budget. Identify any administrative positions or administrative initiatives that you feel should be cut and explain why they are not needed.
4. What roles do Fund 80 programs play in enhancing the educational experience for MMSD students? Should these programs be cut, remain the same, or have an increase in funding? Why?

6. Currently, the district has several charter schools. To what extent should the district promote school choice within the district and the development of charter schools and other alternative school models? |
