Quote:

“There are a number of areas that I can see where we can have cost savings, where we’re spending money that’s in non-instructional activities, and the second part of that is I want to take the money and put it into instructional activities. That’s something that we have to fix now. This is about spending money on the best teachers, not on more administrators or more programs that aren’t directly helping students.“
