Vote no on the Proposition 2 technology levy. Do not throw your ballot away as I hear some people are doing. Vote. Your taxes will be much higher as there are very few $250,000 homes as used in their example.
The school administration seems to think we have endless money.
Why aren’t these levies out on the Kent election four months ago? It cost millions of dollars to run separate votes. Schools say it doesn’t, but I would have to see the figures. Who counts the vote?
No one has told us about the number of computers already purchased. How many still exist? Are emails, jokes and pornography blocked? What is done about the missing computers?
When the last levy passed they said teachers would update the computer systems, and no additional staff would be needed. Did that happen?
Kids nowadays are just as smart as past generations but are not taught to think. Instead, just punch a button. Why do you think many cannot fill out a job application if computers are not present?
Lower grades do not need computers. The 10th, 11th and 12th grade classes could have computer classes furnished as a regular class.
In short, many of us are taxed to the hilt. Fire, city, county, gas tax and state taxes.
