A Senior's View on the District 300 Referendum
The referendum is a mixed blessing.
After discussing it last night with Mr. Wood, I have realized something.
We didn't really need it.
If money had been better managed in the past, we wouldn't need it. I don't hate Jack Roeser. I don't like that he skipped a press conference at Crown, and threw out tons of slanderous information on the students and teachers, but he's right.
We wouldn't have needed it if union policies didnt push teachers pay higher. Teachers deserve it, but not to the point that it takes away from the students.
I am glad the referendum passed, because my sisters and thousands of other kids will have the same chances I have had. I just hope the school board and teacher's union doesn't fuck it up this time.
Jack Roeser, my apologies to you for anything I said.
Just show up to appointments you make.
Tell the Daily Herald to cover more than one district school.

I thought teachers' salaries and funds for other school programs are from two entirely different budgets...
