Dear Editor,

I’ve never had children in the local schools, but have always voted for the school bonds and levies. WHY? Because an educated public is one of the strongest aids to a truly democratic society. Because “our” children deserve an excellent education. Because a society that does not care for our most vulnerable members – children and elders – is a sorry culture, indeed.

Don’t you wish that we could choose where our tax dollars go, that there was a checklist we could mark, and choose what would receive our hard earned tax money? Well, this is that opportunity! What better thing to invest in than our children, our future?

Sincerely,

Sandy Vaughn
