None of the survey questions asked about safety, but concerns about safety, gangs and neighborhood tensions run throughout the comment sections.
These are not "results." The 125 slides in the presentation is data. So, bravo! Thanks for the community dialogue data. That is a nice 3rd or 4th step.
What results do YOU see within that data?
When the real results are posted, then we'll have the next round of discussions.
These general questions may start people thinking and talking. It is not clear if ALL comments were posted, but in addition to concerns about safety respondents seem to favor schools in neighborhoods even at the high school level. While long travel times to a really special program are acceptable for some students, for most an option to go to school nearby seems to be viewed as a way to provide services, maximize parent engagement and make the most of students' time.
The deJong firm promptly confirmed that all comments have been posted, unless they contained profanity or references to specific individuals.
