Now, the district can take action faster,
when schools and teachers don't measure up.
Teachers layoffs won't be based only on
seniority, but performance too.
If the levy passes in November, charter
schools will share some of those tax dollars.
One big change, the mayor will not have
the power to approve charter schools, just recommend them.

So can you get this flesh-eating bacteria?
Well it's found in fresh water, and in brackish water, which is water that contains salt, but not as much as salt water.
It enters a body through an open wound, it gives off toxins that destroy skin and soft tissue.
It's difficult to diagnose early, but you should look out for pain coming from a closed wound, as well as redness or drainage.

Tonight, the Cleveland city council approved a plan to find a private company to take over city-owned Highland Park Golf Course
Under a ten-year deal, a company will cover the management, marketing and maintenance of the course.
It's a 36 hole course, that has cost the city more to run, than it brought in.
The City already leased its Seneca Golf Course to the Metroparks.
