Please vote NO NO NO. I am in these schools all the time and there are too many people doing nothing!!!!!!!!! And come on why is the superintendent so hung up on a "transition counselor"?

VOTE NO NO NO!!!!

How many private businesses are allowing their costs to increase almost 5% this year ??? These clowns do not have a clue as to how to manage other people's money.

Tell them NO INCREASE - PERIOD. Make do with what you had last year.

They will respond with "wah-wah-wah, we have to have more money because it is in the teacher's contract..." BULL !! Lay off some teachers, increase the lcass sizes, and get over it.

Stop pi$$ing away tax money.
