MINGUS SCHOOL CONTINUES TO TRAVEL

Budgetary issues have led to a lot many talks coming into play that has people suggesting that the school travel lesser and only when needed as such. The board has for the same stated that they won’t be holding back on their travels for the remaining part of the year.

In the mean while there is Mingus Superintendent Tim Foist who feels that the school should cut down on its travels except for when needed the most. This would thus help them do the much required savings. For once they may travel during competitions only and end up doing savings worth as much as $13,000 even before the school closes for the year. Later on even during the summers, they may enjoy savings worth as much as $12,000.

For once going to the trips, like say the Utah Shakespeare Festival, can be paid for by other means apart from the funds directly coming from the school. But then the board members, who are staunch with their stand for the time being at least, feel that these tours cannot simply be done away with. They are effectively educational and enlightening for the students. Board member Anita Glazar was among the one who spoke in affirmative thus.

This is against Foist’s arguments that the trip, even if be needed to make to the festival, should be having the students and their parents themselves paying for it. At the same time Business manager Kirk Waddle states of how one should not ignore the fact as to how much of expenses are being made when they go on a long trip in the school’s buses. The spending is in fact anywhere between $50,000 and $60,000 annually and that too for fleet maintenance only.

Ralph Fobair, Career and Technology Education director for the district is another person who is with the idea of the traveling program. For once, the CTE courses as offered ought to be still a part of the school’s scheme of things and the travelling part comes with it.
