Are you saying 108 has some problems in this area? 108 has alot of kids taking online classes? Really how many? I know of a few kids who have taken online classes in the past, but as I understand, it had more to do with the families stance on public education in general, more than anything to do with 108.

We (or city council) need to find a way to bring in families with children. I think two of the biggest classes in USD #108 right now are my son's classes - 10th and 7th so it's only going to be a matter of a time before enrollment goes even lower, unless of course we can talk everyone into having more kids and then we can fill up the schools (count me out on this idea though)!
