The Saline Area Schools district held its "Schools of Choice" lottery Monday.
Superintendent Scot Graden said there were 138 applications from out-of-district families who want to send their children to Saline schools. Graden said that number is consistent with what the district has seen in the past.
Graden reiterated the district's position schools of choice.
"We use the process to manage enrollment. Our goal is to make sure we do not lose enrollment this year," Graden told the Saline Board of Education during administrative remarks Tuesday. "It's a very challenging year for us to predict."
In Michigan, school districts are largely funded by the state on a per-pupil basis.
There were 26 applicants at Saline High School and 44 applicants at the kindergarten level.
The district has begun reaching out to families who've qualified to come to Saline schools through schools of choice. Those families have until June 26 to enroll their children in Saline schools..
Graden said the lottery was filmed.
The district has a policy that limits the number of schools of choice students to 10 percent of the total school population. The district had previously said it hoped to add a minimum of 64 students and up to 132 students using the program this year.

Wow. Ali has definitely drank the Marl Kool Aid. Very ironic that any time Marl is questioned you supply unwavering support for the Mayor regardless of the facts. Curious how your rhetoric sounds exactly like his 🤔
Oh goodness. It is not a matter of supporting or not supporting Marl. It is a matter of not supporting those who engage in unfounded and unsupported attacks and fuel the fans of controversy and division with unfounded attacks and innuendo. Unfortunately, there is so much of that garbage going on at the Federal le

I am confused about two references in the article referring to the candidates to be put forth and to the potential motion at Monday's meeting as "Mayor Marl's" selected candidates. These is a committee comprised of several members including members of City Council that was charged with and that did narrow the selec
In the live interview following the closed session, Mayor Marl actually addressed the candidates as “his choices;” stating that council “agreed with him.” Tran did repeat those words back to Marl for clarification and Mark said it again.
This whole thing smells and of course our “transparent” (not) mayor is again in the thick of it.
Disgusting. What has happened to the city I was born and raised in?🤬
It is expressing its displeasure with the current administration. Which is never “disgusting.” Peaceful protests are an essential freedom and absolute right.
Why do parents bring small children and expose them to ALL THIS hate, some children holding signs and have no idea what it means. I saw one young girl about 5, she looked terrified, almost to tears. Be careful what u wish for in a king, they don't fool around w rioting.
