on Breaking APS into smaller districts

the need to break the APS into smaller pieces flows from the same frustration the drives the need for Charter schools.

Stakeholders in neighborhood schools do not believe that they have any real control over their schools.

The solution is Site Based Decision Making.

If stakeholders have the capacity to wield power and spend resources that are fundamentally their own to begin with;
the frustration is mitigated; and the need for succession evaporates.
