I'm struck by the fact that today is the 2oth Anniversary of the showdown at Tiennamen Square in China where hundreds of China's young adults were killed (and thousands imprisoned for years) for standing up for the right of individual freedom and their thirst for democracy.
Tonight we, the citizens, residents, voters and taxpayers of Eddington, Clifton and Holden must stand up to what has become an automatic disregard for our rights of fiscal accountability by this school district and it's business office.
Be at the Holbrook Middle School before 7pm. Be prepared to speak up and demand NO INCREASE in the school budget over the 2008-2009 bottom line ($9,248,961.). $9,767. per student per year is enough. If that can't provide a quality education then there's something drastically wrong in this school district and the School Board better figure it out. We can't afford - nor should we be spending $10,000. per student per year. And that's our bottom line. Period.
