CDA SCHOOL LEVY: Vote yes

I would like to encourage citizens to vote in favor of the upcoming Coeur d’Alene School District levy. As a parent whose three children were educated by this school district and as an employee of more than 20 years with this school district, I have seen the great value a strong educational system provides to our community.

The current levy which is expiring June 30 provides one quarter of the school district’s operating funds. If this levy is not renewed CRITICAL cuts will be necessary. Class sizes will increase, many academic programs will be eliminated, sports and activities removed. This will all come at an immense cost to the youth of our community and to the strength of our community at large. Please vote YES on May 16. Partner with the Coeur d’Alene School District and vote YES to support education.
