Y'all voted to limit class size, student / teacher ratio a few years ago on one of our general elections. It wasn't funded. The work has not been done.

They should hire a realtor to help them sell their Southbank property. Then they'll have 60 million.

Replacing all the incompetent yahoos that run the joint with qualified people from the corporate world.  They have not yet caught up with the rest of the world on efficiency and accountability.  St. Johns county supposedly has the best-run school system in northeast Florida.  JCCI, this is a challenge - study their school district and do a side by side comparison of ours, and you'll see plenty of differences.  Hold that $41 million until the study is complete so there will be money to fund the improvements.

Very True lets see City Hall isn't on the River and the Court House soon won't be on the river. So its way time the School Board sells there property/ To like a large Hotel Group a New Marriott sure would look good on that side of the river. Very Good Point Captain Zissou Very Good Point

They should fund some vouchers.

Use it to move their HQ away from the riverfront.

I'd use half to fund after school educational programs / drop out prevention programs. Th other stick in a high interest account.
