Does anyone consider the completely useless hires that leech off the budget of the entirety knox county? What if they're cut? Wouldn't that bolster some recovery?

Don't cry and complain when I tell you school taxes are increased by the school board and Carla and Sam can't do that, can they.
. Yes they can and they do.50% of property tax goes to the school board. They have raised their taxing rate every year, whereas the other tax bases voted not to add an extra burden to the people of Knox county..

So even if the teachers didn't get a raise the taxes would still get raised.

Got it.

Well i can tell you Brenda Corey, Is a whole lot smarter than merida and sowders put together. If they are so smart why not put them in schools where the test scores are so low. Usless as tits on a bore hog look at the salarys they get 250,000 for two people that is a joke. What can they do? show me something,Eastburnsted was smart enought not to hire Huey they know him loud mouth joke. If he is a Deacon at cornith baptist church then i am the pope you don't do people the way he has done if you are a cristian. If heaven is full of these type people i don't think i won't to be there but i don't think they are going do you.

They are 3 reasons the test scores are so low. Moving them around isn't going to help except reward them for being good like political suck ups.

I'm just gonna put this out there for everybody.If you have children in the Knox county school system you need to attend the next board meeting because rumor has it the three board members that are leaving in January are planning to purchase three new buses with the rest of your children's rainy day fund that's almost a million dollars they would have spent in two months if this is allowed to happen!This would leave our school system virtually broke,We have to come together and make a stand on this matter before it's too late, That money will come back to the school system out of your pocket every time you pay your utility bills and pay your taxes so I think we need to put a stop to this!

It would be if there was money to do it with but theres not can you say layoffs because thats what its gonna cause It's not about the buses it's all about them leaving the school system in financial ruin and it costing your friends and neighbors their jobs thats the sad part of it

I think you just use scare tactics so your chosen board members (you might even be one of them) can have control of the money. people are waking up. If the money was burned it would be better use than what they have done with your money for all the past years. the parents are smarter than you think. On welfare or not we know what your plan is.

Daily Horoscope for June 19

Leo

You need to vary your domestic routine slightly today to avoid feeling bored or restless, especially if the day threatens to be rather predictable. Think of ways to introduce a note of spontaneity into the proceedings, even if they're very minor, because they'll make you feel more lively and on the ball. If you're going shopping you'll be tempted by some impulse buys.
