ReplyNice article, Jeff. The individual teachers, however, do make up the union. That said, I will be nice at conferences. I agree with you ShowMe. The Board is listening to the community and if we feel like the levy should be 0% (which I think will still mean a small increase) instead of the 1.5%, we need to email and let them know. Property values will fall further the more ridiculous our taxes get.

ReplyYes, Doug, we need to support our school district and teachers, but that does not mean that "how we do business" does not need to change. As has been reiterated many times, it is an outdated model. Every industry needs to change to stay viable. Thanks, Bob, for the reminder that tonight's meeting is very important to the future of our community.

ReplyBeth - they will not be attendance days, right? I was planning on not sending my kids because days wouldn't count, but if there is chance they will count - of course I'd send them.
