Continuing to update schools is necessary, especially in these days when the general population is clamouring that American children are not getting the necessary education to compete in the world-markets.

While the cost of the school now and what it will cost over its lifetime may be a lot larger, the real question should be “are there any un-neccesary expenditures in the budget for items that are not realistic or will be outdated as soon as they are built?”.

Straightline voting out a school is irresponsible by a community. To the senior community members, someone provided a school for your children to attend. To the members who don’t have children, these children are the future of your community and your community deserves to have properly educated members.

It is quite apparent that when a community has a certain level of education that the functionality and goings-on in the community are positive. It only takes a few examples of “bad” communities that showcases this.

I haven’t read about what the plans for the new school entail, but maybe there should be some examination of what is to be done and then trim some of the fat and/or re-allocate funds to items that would serve the community better.

Have you ever been to a board meeting to voice your opinion?
