Cuts In School Funding

Well it is happening again, the government is stepping in and destroying anything that helps the middle class.

This time it's taking from school districts that are high performing and have a high value and robbing them and giving to less fortunate school districts that are not performing, while some school districts aare losing 70% or better of their state funding there are lower value school districts actually seeing increases as high as 16-19%.

In the school district I live in this is happening with the cuts from the state they have to lay off 43-77 teachers, administrators and staff, they are going to have to charge tuition for children to attend kindergarten,it is either pay for full day or go to half day which leaves children at a disadvantage.

We need to speak out against this, quit playing robin hood why punish school districts that have high performance.
