Spencerport schools feeling the Impact of U.N.F.A.I.R.

A reader send this in from an email they received from a contact at the Spencerport Schools

we are already feeling the impact of this “fair” plan. The print shop at the District yoffice lost $ 800,000. we rely on them to make copies of all of our worksheets and handouts for students.

I’m guessing that this means since the budget cuts to our kids start in January - the Spencerport Schools are slashing the Printshop budget January forward.

So, what does that mean? Well centralized production is cheaper than decentralized production. This ends up being a penny wise, pound foolish. What are we going to do print out hand-outs on small personal Ink Jet printers?

I suppose there is always Siemens to the rescue. Remember the obscenely long term Siemens contract Monroe County entered? 12-year, $13 Million contract for leased copier management services.

Didn’t see that addressed in Maggie’s Budget yesterday did you.

On the backs of our Children.

I’m a teacher in Spencerport and was told the amount of books/materials I could order has been reduced due to the “Fair” plan.
