Visionaries,
=20
I understand now why Donovan was questioning my numbers for MSD's =
half-way
point.=20
=20
If you strictly look at the children who attend MSD (decreasing at ~50 =
per
year), then that half-way point occurs ~2013. However, I was including =
the
census data with the total number of school-aged children in Moscow. =
Because
those numbers are increasing significantly (20% per year) and MSD's are
decreasing significantly, the half-way point actually occurs around
2008/2009.
=20
Now, from the District's perspective, they discount the children who =
they
are not being paid for. However, when we look at the absolute numbers, =
we
must include those who are not attending the government schools in town. =
=20
My apologies for confusing him and anyone else with this distinction.=20
=20
Best,
Dale Courtney
