Mr. Bobb is praised by many for his reform efforts, but in many cases, to the detriment of student need. I'm not a School Social Worker, but I think since we just passed a proposal on Tuesday to funnel more money into the DPS budget, there ought to be enough money to retain the school social workers. Have they talked to anyone at the Board of Education or Mr. Bobb himself? This is beyond ridiculous!!

What an injustice.
