N. Montijo added to say that the changes were already forth coming in the first interim reports that will be presented to the MPS board in a couple of weeks. Board Members H. Beliak and S. Dikbas requested further discussion and analysis on the financial factors that can affect MPS. In addition, they would like a report that shows enrollment numbers against projected budgets and school plans for declining enrollment.
