The school has somehow gone under the radar for me, either because I don't know any kids there now or have not witnessed a distraught parent make a statement about how it was going for their kid. I do know they never reached the expected enrollment.<br />Is there anyone who would consider Clayton a win for pps?

HAVE disruptive students been removed from the classroom? Are classrooms noticeably improved compared to the way they were before Clayton? Is it true that students with an IEP cannot be sent to Clayton, and if so, does that greatly reduce the number of disruptive students eligible for Clayton? Is there a better solution? And what specific arrangements are being made for the company running Clayton to train regular PPS staff so that the district can provide an alternative setting more economically in the future?<br />Questionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349071186140766778noreply@blogger.com
