The first referendum for just under $39 million failed in a close vote last April. The new one in November will be for slightly more than $38 million, but it will be broken up into three questions.

This school board acts like my elementary aged child. Tell them no, they keep asking till you break down and say yes. Maybe we need to replace this school board with some adults. Better hope you get more college kids to vote yes for it, because you know they have no skin in the game. Good luck, but I hope it fails.

The people have already spoken….take your lumps and move on. Show restraint and proper use of budgeted money in the future and then I will consider a future referendum. Until those things happen I will keep voting no. I want a fiscally responsible school board and until I get one I refuse to give them more money!! Time to work with what you have….which IMO isn’t that bad.
