Community of Lapeer wake up! The future of our kids is a stake! Does our superintendent and schoolboard know what they are doing?Our 35 year old superintendents goal to combine Lapeer East and West, creating a high school containing well over 2000 kids. The Ideal Size High School by /Valerie E. Lee a professor of education at the University of Michigan says most effective high schools have 600 to 900 students. Students learned more in these schools and less in larger schools.We felt that high schools with 600 to 900 students were large enough to offer a full and solid curriculum, but small enough so students were known well by their teachers and didn t get lost in the cracks. These findings should be a consideration for districts that consolidate schools for budget reasons, particularly because the expected savings of operating fewer schools in many cases (given higher transportation costs, and the need for a denser administrative staff in the large school, for example) may not fully materialize. The major cost of operating schools is staff. Consolidating two schools into one would probably not result in staff reductions or savings and lesson the educational value.
