SCHOOL LEVY: State should support schools, too

| September 11, 2024 1:00 AM

Once again, a school levy will be on the ballot. I will vote for it as I think having public education is crucial. Wouldn’t it be great if we had a legislature who thought that public education was essential and would fund it as such? Why must schools have to have a levy every other year to fund essential services? Idaho has one of the lowest teacher salaries in the nation. In school quality, Idaho ranks 45 out of the 50 states. Our future generations deserve better! We could vote in some legislators who support public education, that would be a start.

Oh wait, this is a Red state, and these are Republican legislators. People here don’t want an educated populace because they ask difficult questions, they might vote differently, they might even want change!
