The breakdown for the taxes for JPS is astronomical. And JPS pays Gray way too much to allow the product that is shuffled out the door to enter into society as a "scholar" as he once put it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-36283722280960085352015-11-26T13:04:28.794-06:002015-11-26T13:04:28.794-06:00I hope Jackson gets many,many,many,of these charte...I hope Jackson gets many,many,many,of these charter schools.
