School system failures demand big changes

I do not understand why everyone is so intent to push this magnet plan only on the High Point schools when we are part of the Guilford County Schools system. The school board says it is for minority balance. If this is the case, should they not be looking at Dudley and Northwest high schools? Let them start talking about busing between those two schools and not only the three High Point schools.

Also, the superintendent must not be a very good manager to have so many personnel problems. Teachers are scared to speak out. In any company, if you have these poor results, then usually a new CEO is hired and the previous one is fired. The next superintendent will need to be good to clean up this mess. Too bad our system is run by old politicians and not common-sense business people.
