SCHOOLS: Return taxpayer dollars

Hold on before you divide up all the “extra” school funds! We, the people and YOUR neighbors, who are underemployed, formerly retired and going back to work, facing exponential health insurance premiums, increasingly levied and taxed and selling our possessions to buy food, are tired of robbing what little savings we have, that is our home values, to pay “desperate levies” and “emergency levies” only to find out that 89 percent of the levies go to salaries and there was no emergency, only an insistence of receiving more pay. After you REDUCE our levies, teach at least five hours per day, and accept similar medical insurance that your neighbors have, should we yield the extra funds.
