On the side of fairness

It appears that someone by the name of Boyd has posted a website concerning the bond issue, so please check it out. He states that his data comes from the PISD. There in lies a potential problem. This writer has already researched data available from the TEA and the Dept. of Education and neither set of numbers seem to match what is being reported by the PISD.

It appears we have a little Soothsaying taking place in regards to the numbers. It was reported on Friday last week at one of the Coffee Shop Round Tables that the bonding agency who will push the bonds in the marketplace reported in their report that PISD had a net increase of 1 (ONE) student at the high school over the past four (4) years. Why all the confusion? More reason for the public who foots the tab to be skeptical of the inside numbers.

Anyway in fairness I have posted the website for your skeptical preview:

The site appears to be well designed; however, we question some of the facts posted to the site.

It is a little cool here in Denver today, but I guess at higher elevations it should be.

In to the wild blue yonder................................................
