Click here to listen to Thurmond’s recent interview with Cynthia at V103 regarding DeKalb schools.
Thurmond states that the DeKalb tax digest decreased by $9 Billion. And the state budget declined by millions. Those two sources of money have significantly decreased therefore forcing the system to increase class sizes to decrease teachers. He also says 70% of students qualify for Free & Reduced lunch. And larger class sizes effect them more. He says they did not ask for a waiver this year. We were carrying a $14 million deficit, which is illegal. We were looking at $20 million more in cuts. When asked where he ‘found’ millions of dollars, he stated that they found funding sources that had been untapped and they made significant cuts – especially to lawyers (cut by $6 million) by hiring cheaper lawyers. The greatest influence on a child’s education is the parent… We are going to build capacity for parental engagement, adult guardianship and mentorship through our Title 1 program.Michael Thurmond Joins LJW On Power Talk

dekalb school watch two 
Every single day, the school system looses more ground with the taxpayers. Every day there’s another scandal in the school system. Who can believe that the state boe sat there and didn’t take action, knowing that just yesterday, “another” employee of the supt. was as corrupt as it is possible to get, so that makes her even more corrupt than the “expert” she hired. I am ashamed of the state boe as they sat there so cowardly and wishy-washy, taking no position at all of outrage and rejection of all the ills they have heard about DeKalb Schools. The Supt. is a major part of DeKalb’s problem, along with the board and all the bureaucrats who hold down $100+++jobs.If the Supt doesn’t fire her buddy from NC, the taxpayers may really, truly get involved. Shame on you, ga doe and dekalb doe and dr. supt. with no respect for anyone other than her friends!
“I was elected by the people, but I work for God,” Walker said. He said he would respect the will of the courts, but not that of politicians and the process they created with the 2011 law.”
A quote from Eugen Walker. (AJC Feb. 24, 2013)
Yes Mr. Walker, you were elected by the people, However, you give God a bad name if the state of the Dekalb School district is Gods doing through you. Unless of course he sent you to destroy the future of the students and the livelihoods of the people that work within the Dekalb School District. If that is the case, then you can look forward to a “Well done my son”.
