Blind man’s bluff

The El Paso Independent School District (EPISD) says that they want community input before they decide what to do about the physical condition of our schools.  They have posted a survey on their web site and tell us:

“This questionnaire will gather input from the community on district-wide facility related challenges, gauge the perceived effectiveness of possible corrective actions, and be used by the Steering Committee to develop recommendations that will then be presented to the Superintendent.”

The first page of the questionnaire looks like this:

We are evidently supposed to answer the questions after reading a worksheet.  No such worksheet is available on the web site at the time of this writing as far as I can tell.

I’m having difficulty here.  I cannot decide whether to record strong support for option one or for option two.

What are your thoughts?

Be sure to give the district your input — they say they really want it.

We deserve better

    That is one long ass survey. I read through it twice Brutus What is not mentioned is the fate of the Gene Roddenberry Planetarium. I can’t find anything in that document asking about it or mentioning it. I think It would be a shame to see it demolished when the Central office building has to move in a few years. I hope it does not meet the same fate as Insights.

    How could the district pay a million dollars for a facilities survey and miss part of the facilities?

      If the facility auditors didn’t find the planetarium, maybe it was demolished as part of the expansion and remodeling of Cabrera’s office or to make room for the offices of his expanded “cabinet”. Stranger things have happened in the EPISD galaxy.

    I would go with “Other” rather than Option 1 or Option 2.
