PA 10 of 1999- "Breach in the Dam"
Covered any first ctass school distrjct (DPS was the onty one at the time, since or ever.
it was worded carefulty as to avoid an unconstitutiona[ locat acts viotatl'on)
Ptaced the State.Superintendent of Pubtic Instruction (or designee) on newly-created school board which made it nearty impervious to a federal coLrt chat'ienge.
Engage.d the Mayor-City and school district which had contiguous taxing bodies of taxpayer
property as to not viotate Headtee provisions With about a quarter of its students faiting w!1ch was very common in the state. That percent represented approximatety 48,000 students. This was nearty twice the number of total studen enrotted the second [argest district's.
Because of the DPS district's shear size the legislature reasoned that their intervention was necessary, or so they said.
The Detroit community reasoned that this was a money and power grab to controt the 1.5 Bittion dotlar bond money that Detroit voters had approved fcir buitding refair, rehab and construction. Of course these altegations presupposes a knowtedge of intent i/hich they did not and coutd not prove. Howeve6 then State Representative LaMar Lemmons introduced an amendment that woutd have attowed the locatly elected.school Board to be left in ptace to oversee the Bond money, the repair, rehab and construction of schoots. This woutd attow the State's Reform pedagogicat experiment to run its course. The amendment faited on party tines.
.a !iMany middle class parents immediately rejected the
idea of a Reform Experiment on their children with
1 1,000 students and families abandoned DPS.
Parents and Taxpayers had no recourse for comptaints, concerns and disagreements with the Reform C.E.O. and
the essentiatty powertess reform Board
Reform school Board meetings were often disrupted with protests and demonstrations; arrests were commonptace
Detroiters did what ever they coutd to resist the imposition of the State's faiting reform experiment on
thei r chi [d ren
It is widety betieved that the often looped footage of the
appointed Reform School Board President instructing security to "get he6 a comptaining guardian grandparg

causes and origins of the deficit.
Appty a proportional attocation of responsibitity system. This would insure that the State of Michigan woutd not impose undeserved penatties on the [oca[ School District
that occurred during the State's operation of the district.
Have the State to immediatety assume its portion of the
the [oca[ district for any and atl outstanding funds owed
due to any Headlee viotations [Articte 9; Sections 25-32 of
the Michigan Constitutionl lmmediately empower the current already etected Schoo[
Board.

The Detroit Education Commission
The so called Detroit Education Commission [DEC] wil[ divert sorely needed resources away from the ctassroom ahd into a newty creat6d MayoraI bureaucracy. The DEC takes away the authority granted to Detroit voters and gives those powers to a newty created Mayoral appointed "commission-"-- The DEC wilt adversely affect:
>Finances
>Ctass size
Competitions
Credit Rating
Bond Rating
Academic Rating of Schoots
Other Operationat Functions &
Responsibilities too numerous to tist
DEC witt operate onty in the City of Detroit attowing other
schoo[ districts to compete without any such impediments
The DEC is a continuation of experimentation on Detroit's chitdren The etected Detroit School Board Members have unanimousty
This was done in response to the witt of the voters' of the 9W
experimentation
State proposes the bifurcation of the DPS schoo[ district
for the purposes of separating the debt
However, much of the debt, if not the vast majority, was created by and /or during the State's operation of
the District without a specific audit to determine the causes and
and underserving penatty & a probabte viotation of Headtee amendment- the prohibition of the state to impose taxation on [oca[ unites of qovernment (cities. school districts, [oca[ etected school boards & citizens)
up up up
for the children of Detroit? for democracy?
and speak truth to power?
