PROPERTY TAXES & PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS

Public schools may keep asking for more bond issues and increases in homeowner property taxes to pay school costs while their wasteful spending sprees seem out of control to many taxpayers! However, school administrators may take good care of themselves even if it may not always be according to students' needs!

Administrative costs continue to increase and have been used to purchase marble bathrooms in administration buildings, vacation getaways, fairly extravagant office renovations for administrators and, at times, taxpayer dollars have even been used to renovate administrators' homes while your child's classroom may be falling into general disrepair and lacking student classroom supplies!

Do you think the administrators' offices ever go in need of significant repairs and office supplies? Students' needs may too often be neglected yet the administrators' needs may be fulfilled first class!
