Vote YES for ballot measure 29-184 on May 20. The Neah-Kah-Ne School District students deserve to have a quality education which includes reasonable class size, enough staff and support personnel, transportation due to the great distance the district covers, excellent education in the core curriculum, art, music, journalism, athletics, career and college post high school preparation.
Students should not go without due to the $2,775,000 shortfall due to the decline in forestry funding. No district can operate year to year with such uncertainty. A new system must be put in place for funding to be stable and reliable because children’s well being are at stake. They are our future and should be treated with the care and concern they deserve.
Until such a new system can be put in place, this levy of approximately a few dollars each month for property owners must be passed so the district can assure the children and their families continued and growing pathways to success. Success for a student in the district means success for us all.
