One million dollars a year to teach 1200 pre schoolers to read? What are they going to use, gold plated readers? Get real. I learned to read at three by reading the Sunday comic pages on my Grandpa's knee. Stop trying to solve the problem of incompentent teachers by throwing more money at it.

You may be able to solve the problem simply, which will be a relief all round, but there's a chance that you may have to do some serious thinking or get some expert advice before you know exactly what your next step should be. You may have to take official action of some kind.
