Save Our SchoolsTake a look at the Neighboring Counties Tax Rate Comparison chart to see where Blue Ridge ranks. The SOS committee is planning to kick off the referendum campaign as soon as school is back in session following the Winter Break (Jan. 5). It is vital to the students' education that the upcoming referendum passes. A 'yes' vote will mean continued quality education; a 'no' vote will mean the slow death of our district. Would you be willing to help make this campaign successful? SOS is needing volunteers for several 'jobs.'
As you can see, this job can only be accomplished by having a large number of volunteers willing to drive the referendum to a positive vote. Would you be willing to help in some way? Contact Tori Homann if you are available to help get a 'yes' vote March 16. As we move through this school year, please take a moment to think about what our town would be like if all our kids were sent to another district for school...empty buildings, empty gyms and ball fields, quiet crosswalks, silent playgrounds. Our children deserve better, and it's up to the adults to fund their education. Together we can, we should, we will SAVE OUR SCHOOLS! Malinda
