Clay-Can't believe you are even asking that!!!!! I sent you an email. Read it! LOL
Justin-About your question about schools.... I don't think there is much of a problem around here. Some smaller schools because of financial reasons are having to consolidate, but not many. I know here in Monticello, we have two separate school districts. We have Monticello and Drew Central. The "city" kids go to Monticello and the "country" kids go to Drew Central. I figure eventually we'll consolidate, but both schools are doing good. Monticello is much bigger. Just in Kindergarten alone, we have 10 Kindergarten classrooms. It's hard to find teachers these days because the kids these days have so many problems. And all the paperwork. I spend more time at work on my off hours just trying to stay afloat! And they are pushing these kids. I teach now what 1st grade use to. The kindergartners have to be able to read before leaving Kindergarten. And they wonder why these kids can't get along???? They don't get to play like we use to. They don't have any socialization skills. They sit in a seat for hours on end listening to instruction. Ok. I could write a book! I'll stop there.
