Since we teach in an urban school we were very interested in the comments that were made by the Council. We are in total agreement with their findings.

  1. "High poverty urban/central city area" is as important as concerning ourselves with high cost areas.
  2. We were also concerned with the aspect as to where the services would be placed, believing also that classroom access is imperative.
  3. Rates should be proportional to the amount that a school system is able to pay.

In conclusion, we felt that the Council of the Great City Schools made many valuable points and that they should be taken into consideration.
