The KLSD school board may vote

On 10/21/2013, Dr. Paul Kreutzer,
superintendent, presented the case
for closure as a public hearing.
Let’s look at his slides … again
![Page 4: Katonah-Lewisboro: It matters where you draw the line](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071813/55a359681a28ab107d8b4594/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
There was an error in the original
presentation.
Dr. Kreutzer called it a “slight
inaccuracy …”
![Page 5: Katonah-Lewisboro: It matters where you draw the line](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071813/55a359681a28ab107d8b4594/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
We decided to look at all of the
slides …
![Page 6: Katonah-Lewisboro: It matters where you draw the line](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071813/55a359681a28ab107d8b4594/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The District, Elementary, and Grade
1 vs. Grade 12 Enrollment slides all
contain misplaced red-lines
separating “actual” from “projected’
enrollment.
All show decreased projections on
the actual side of the line.

3 Slides . . .
3 misplaced red lines for actual and
projected data.

Is an upswing
in 2013 enrollment
hard to explain?
Something to avoid
showing?
![Page 12: Katonah-Lewisboro: It matters where you draw the line](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071813/55a359681a28ab107d8b4594/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The district enrollment data
presented to the public is deeply
flawed.
![Page 13: Katonah-Lewisboro: It matters where you draw the line](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071813/55a359681a28ab107d8b4594/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Is this sloppy, hastily performed
work?
Or is it a coordinated effort to
mislead the public?
Either way, there is only one thing
to do …

Suspend the work of the School
Closure Task Force.

Stop this now!
It’s the only way to make this right.
