What the taxpayer thinks is important.
I don't know about Michigan, but these school levys have been routinely voted down here in Ohio.
The last time our school district passed a levy, like seven years ago, the bulk of the money went to making good unfunded commitments to the teacher's union fund.
They tried to sneak it around the taxpayer and are now exposed for the public-sector unionists they are.
in my day, the guys who didn't want to be drafted went into teaching....nuff said...
but those are qualities that are not always showing, sadly...
I'll take my old nun teachers anyday of the week....to this day, the best teachers I ever had were elderly nuns who knew their stuff and were quite the disciplinarians...God love em and bless them...
Everybody wants the government to be a pyramid scheme for them.
Had I known my kid was being taught to hate his country I would not have sent him to your lousy class D-bag.
I went into teaching after a successful career in computer programming because I became concerned that I was teaching kids from India, not America, to program computers and that our kids were so ignorant as to believe in global warming.
I felt we simply had to do a better job of teaching our children if we wished to survive.
I now know I was a fool but my motives were noble.
