Online data notes that PPS isn't even one of the largest school districts in the US by student population. It doesn't even rank in the top 100 largest districts. PPS has much bigger problems of management, incompetence and corruption and decade after decade it is unable to make any real changes. Lots of talk - obscene salaries and benefits - and endless failure. Despite all the rhetoric, there is something very wrong here. The food carts are good so no one really gives a shit about schools.
