While this report is 2 years old, its very disheartening as an alum to read this report. There are numerous spelling and grammar errors and so on. There are issues listed as Overdue, incomplete, or doesn't even have a person in place to oversee the specific listed goal to implement specific resources. As poorly as Clairton does on the PSSA, it SHOULDN'T take more than a year and 9 months- if not longer- to have a leader in place.

What can I do as an alum to hold these "so called" leaders accountable?
