**Do you think the clusters were divided equally for economics and academics? Have you seen the free lunch and/or assistance statistics? Have you seen the academic performance and Accountability Reports on each school? They can be seen at www.gwinnett.k12.ga.us
Go to "schools" tab on left menu and then select the school. Then look at the RBES report for each school.

**Do you realize the majority of new schools were put into the new cluster? Is it fair for them to absorb start up costs of most of the new schools? i.e.; enhancing the new libraries, sports and playground equipment, school supplies outside of the GCPS budgets. Most of these are generally contributed by fundraising efforts of the students families. The new cluster also is one has lower income neighborhoods. Is it fair for them to be burdened with this expense? Do you think this should be equally distributed?

**Should the new cluster's middle school students have to pass the other high school's campus to travel to their own?
