Vote yes for much-needed education dollars

Issaquah Press – 01/14/2014

I am writing to encourage the residents of the Issaquah School District to vote yes on three school levies that will be on the Feb. 11 ballot.

We have three replacement levies that we as a school district will be voting on and we need to all vote yes.

Compared to our surrounding school districts, the Issaquah School District is at a financial disadvantage with the funding it receives. The Issaquah School District does an incredible job with the education it delivers to our students, even with this financial disadvantage.

The Maintenance and Operations levy alone provides 21 percent of the Issaquah School District’s operating budget. This money is crucial in continuing the high quality of education the district provides our children.

Please vote yes and encourage those around you to do the same!
