District cuts class sizes and adds teachers across grades
From 1996 to 1999 Aiken County schools reduced class ratios from 27.5:1 to 26.5:1 and added seven teachers at Byrd and other schools at costs over 1.2 million. Nine new portables and room reconfigurations, including Chukker Creek, expanded capacity by about 1 million dollars. Teachers praise improved individual instruction and administrators cite data collection and reduced bureaucracy as benefits.
