Luckily I won't have a kid in school at the time so I won't have to move mine. What money? They have had two years to get the money right....never happen and glad it want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who around here in this county can afford that? Edited August 21, 2019 by TheAmbassador Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePower68 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 I wish all the schools could get new ones for the kids but doubling and tripling property tax would be disastrous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Drunken Sailor Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Did I hear correctly that they want to have horseback riding and swimming? Are they trying to build a private type of school? If that is the case then build a private school and let people that want to go there pay for it and leave everyone else alone. I understand that paying for 3 schools can be expensive, but building 1 that will raise taxes that much seems like it is MORE expensive, not less.

No I didn't know that. I wouldnt want my child in a mega school. If you guys are ok with it if it happens send your kids there. If mine was still there he would be pulled out. Luckily I wont have to worry about it. I did ask him last year when it was brought up what he thought and he said he was against it as well 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD PIRATE Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) 21 hours ago, The Drunken Sailor said: I can't imagine why any of our posters would continue to criticize another program for the same things that we been criticized for in the past. If the TSSAA doesn't have a problem with it then neither do I. Old Pirate says timing has a lot to do when those with more info comes forward. Example, SP was not made known of a fake TSSAA letter received clearing a player until after the season. The Pirates were eliminated from playoffs. Figure, if a program is innocent, majority laugh and ignore move on refuse to moan and whine about the chatter. However it does provide cage rattling either way!
