How did I let it slide that we ALSO have an election for school board? I'm not much happier with our school board and their misplaced priorities than I am with our City Council with twiddle dee and twiddle dum that are sitting there.
I have to ask you, do you think it was smart of these guys to have picked "Coach" for our superintendent?I'm not happy that we are spending money upgrading our sports facility when we've have temporary buildings for our educational classes. I'm not happy that our high school has teachers that need to be fired, so that those who want to teach can. I'm not happy with the way the school board did the dress code (I'm not opposed to the dress code, heck I think it should be tighter, but why wait till the last minute to do it?). I'm not happy with the moving ACE back to a campus when these students have proven they can not function in that environment and I truly believe personalities with the superintendent that were not in control by the school board was the real reason it's being moved.
These are just a few of the items I can come up with off the top of my head.
Did you realize that the largest portion of your house taxes are for the school board? Off the top of my head I think it's 4x that of the city. And why? Because of bad decisions of the school board!
Gonzales, find the candidates personally if you want to and ask them what do they believe in. Ask them if they promise to do something about these and any other issue you know of. Worst case educate yourself on what these people believe in.
Pray about the answers you heard.
Then GET OUT AND VOTE! VOTE VOTE! Please, it's at the School Central Office. Don't wait till election day when you might forget. Get out NOW AND VOTE!
God Bless
