On behalf of the teachers who do the teaching and on behalf of the families that can not afford to send their children to private schools or provide home schooling we want the BOS and the School Administration to begin acting responsibly with the extraordinary amount of funding they have to increase the quality of education rather than increase taxes by 21% to pay for an even larger school budget.

It generally results in more bureaucracy. Statistically, I have read that the highest percentage of parents who advocate homeschooling and private schools for their own children are employed by the public school system. Charter schools and voucher systems seem to me to be viable options that we should be exploring.

Some said without sports there was no purpose in attending school. As someone with a Ph. D. in physics and of extremely poor origins I was not impressed. I looked around the Chambers and realized that parents and teachers affiliated with the Save Our Schools were the promoters of these children being there and making those statements. I felt insulted.

Money spent on school is not that of the School Administration, the School Board, or the BOS. It is that of tax payers. The BOS does have the responsibility to represent the people and give close scrutiny and require justification for every dollar.

In effect, Save Our Schools and the School Administration is asking for more tax dollars and more telling tax payers to pay up and shut up. If school children can not be properly educated at an annual rate of some $10,000 per student then the problem is far deeper than understood and no additional amount of money will solve the root problems.
