If I were superintendent for a day...
Easy. If I were superintendent for a day, I would run a second school bus in the afternoon at least once a week. 1 hour later, 2 hours later, whenever. Right now, we run only one bus, immediately after school. Without a second bus, we are not permitted to start or participate in extracurricular activities. Without a second bus, kids "cannot" stay after school because they won't be able to get home. Many other districts run a second bus; there is no reason why we cannot.
With the bus comes the possibility for great improvement in the school: chess, drama, newspaper, all sorts of extracurriculars that require after-school work.
