Does your child's school get a passing grade? A new survey suggests most parents give their local schools either a B or a C when it comes to the quality of education their kids are receiving. Less than 10 percent of those surveyed said the schools in their community deserve an A.
Where do you think Fox Valley schools rank?
These results aren't terribly surprising given how often we hear from parents who are involved in their kids' education that there's room for improvement. But the study also suggests a majority of people want school funding to increase, a slight surprise considering how difficult it is to pass a referendum in the Fox Valley (perhaps the distinction is which pile of tax dollars the increase comes from -- the state or local property taxes).
