Why is your YES VOTE a SMART vote for the Coeur d’Alene School District’s two levies? I’m convinced that a healthy public education system positively impacts and enriches its local community. Your YES vote for each levy will help our children stay on a consistent learning path so as to become engaged and more knowledgeable citizens. And over time, it will give them increased opportunities to put their talents, skills and gifts to good use benefiting our Coeur d’Alene community in rich and significant ways. Please VOTE YES on Tuesday, March 14 for our Coeur d’Alene Public Schools, our children and those that serve them.
