Start with letting the social workers go

Close up the schools, and return the tax money to the people. Government has zero business "educating" your kids.

[redjetsen]

Schools waste thousands of dollars no one says a thing

It's time to FIRE everyone of these CRT Teachers, and hire teachers who actually will teach math, reading, science, ECT, and quit focusing on the students color!! Also, 98% goes to salaries? SERIOUSLY??

Two elections and lots of threats to get 2000 extra voters in the district to pass these useless, expensive levies.
And all this after a 7% property tax increase for 2022.
Show some respect for the majority of taxpayers who neither voted for this nor experienced pay raises in the last two years. Learn to tighten your belts like everyone else has had to.

Welfate jobs. Start your own business. Quit leaching off tax payers.

if it’s for non-core, they don’t need all that money. put it in to core curriculum. reward students with gift cards when they do well in CORE-curriculum.
