The "Art" of Politics and Budgets!It sure does stink!

I'm sorry! I am really looking into this upcoming election with some serious thought on what the candidate intends to do with the schools and teachers.

OMG I know, next year is going to su*k!! We already have 26-27 kids in all of our first grade classes, and we are slated for full day kindergarten for next year. We are also a feeder school for one of the schools that didn't pass, so now that we have full day kindergarten our numbers are going to go through the roof!!!!

because of the injust way education is funded in this country.... it's paid for mainly by local tax dollars, not the state or federal government, and the local tax payers just cant do it all anymore....
