At a recent Board of Education meeting, the subject of the magnet evaluation, being conducted by the Eagleton Institute, came up for discussion. It seems the survey results about how popular — or unpopular —:the magnet curriclum is in the school district and how well it is or isn't actingj&-educate students has been delayed. ^— __lha board-wasHxrtd"15yT3uperintendent of Schools Dr. Dennis Clancy the "raw data" from the survey will be given to adminis- tration which will be used to prepare a report to school board members. According to Dr. Clancy, the board will not be seeing the raw data. Apparently a prior board decided it didn't want to get bogged down with all the "bits and pieces of information" and would rather have seen a report drawn from the data submitted by Eagleton. That, apparently, was then — to be more exact, it was last February, according to Dr. Clancy, when the board was polled on the matter and replied it did not want to view the data. Board member Richard Johnson, who loves getting his hands dirty digging into bits of information, was not a member of the board when this poll was taken. Mr. Johnson, was well as other school board members, have been claiming from the start they are consistently required to make decisions on matters they have not been given sufficient time to review. What's the harm in giving Mr. Johnson the raw data he wants? No harm, except Mr. Johnson could reach a different conclusion than everyone else. But it seems healthy debate is what the situation warrants. If Mr. Johnson wants to do the hard work, he should be entitled to. After all, it seems hard work is what the public elected him to do.
