Maroa-Forsyth Deciding Between Borrowing, Larger Class Sizes

A local school district has a tough decision to make Monday whether to go with larger class sizes or use short term borrowing as a means to bring on more teachers.

 

Superintendent of Maroa-Forsyth Schools Mike Williams indicates the decision is a tough one for the Board of Education because they have a need for a few more teachers but they also would like to avoid short term borrowing.

 

 

Williams would like to see the district take out money to get more teachers in the classrooms to ease the class size burden they face.

 

 

It is the recommendation of Williams to borrow to get a couple extra teachers into the grade school or to use from their reserves. He indicates between 85 or 90 students at two different grade levels are being divided into three sections whereas the rest of the grade levels are divided into four sections.
