The referendum the School Board wishes for

This is a poll offered by the Tibune a couple days ago. Unlike the real poll which will be offered up in November this one forces a choice between different sized levies. In November voters will be able to vote no on all three amounts. If none wins a majority the District will have to slice another $7 million off the budget annually.

It was this prospect that led Mary Cameron to say she wished voters could “repeal” the School Board rather than harm our students (by voting down the levy). If only voters had that choice.
