School board member Kaye McGarry said she requested a campus-by-campus tally because she was concerned about how recent budget cuts are driving up class sizes.

The statistics suggest suburban campuses don't benefit as much as low-income ones from a CMS policy that assigns more teachers to low-income students in hopes of helping them overcome their social disadvantages.
McGarry and others say the policy might need to be revisited in light of a budget gap of up to $100 million CMS faces next year.

There, fixed it for ya.
CULTURALLY IMPOSED disadvantages?
Change that to SELF IMPOSED disadvantages. Reap what you sow.
Well no matter the fault, Jennifer is coming after your wallet. And it is a double dose for you suburbanites because the the Section 8's have you to pay for theirs.
Instead of demolishing old Harding HS (Erwin Avenue Elem) why not give it to CPCC for a western CPCC campus to relieve overcrowding at the eastern campus old Central HS location?
