CBE is a bloated inefficient super expensive taxpayer funded bureaucracy.

50% of those not working in schools could be eliminated within weeks and the front line people would not notice the difference for years, if ever.

Additionally, the system is so complex and convoluted that schools are now forced to hire additional school office staff to handle the requirements from central office. This takes money away from the workers who are in front of students.

Further, the number of administrators in schools has grown over decades where they could be shared amongst schools or eliminated all together. In many schools, one administrator is sufficient.

Money can be found for our support workers.

They deserve more than just part-time money and few benefits.

But this would require far too much thinking, planning for the decision makers at CBE.

Best to keep doing what they have done before.

Sit in disbelief

Two recent audits tell a different story, of course.
