One of my readers has informed me that a phone survey is being conducted, and the questions are most intriguing. Here’s part of the e-mail describing the questions he was asked:

Some paraphrased questions I recall-

Do you approve or disapprove of the following people
Ken Hinton
Jim Ardis
Paul Vallas

Do you approve or disapprove of a take over of the district by the city
Do you approve or disapprove of a take over of the district by the state
Do you approve or disapprove of raising taxes to support a charter school coming into the district
Biggest issue for the district- crime, scores, money
A question on the teachers union- they are doing the best they can, they are in it just for them
Do you approve of the direction the city is heading
Do you approve of the direction the district is heading
What is your opinion of Dunlap 323

I would love to see the results of this survey. But even more than that, I would love to know who is conducting it. Anyone want to ‘fess up?

Even if you don’t know who’s conducting it, what do you think of the questions? How would you answer them?

UPDATE: I’ve gotten confirmation from District 150 and the City of Peoria that they are not conducting this survey. The Heartland Partnership has indicated that they’re aware of the survey, but they can’t get me any more details until Monday. I’ll pass along any new information I receive.
