B A quality education for our children is one of the most important gifts we can give them. Bonds do not provide an education. That does not require tax increases. It has been shown over and over again that the two most important factors in quality education are parental involvement and good teachers, in that order. Everything else pales in comparison.
Parental involvement is inexpensive, but requires active approaches.
All parents want their children to do better. Perhaps community action can draw parents into stronger ties with their children. Perhaps new community leaders will arise from a renewed commitment to excellence. Get the ball rolling, and it will go a long way. Involvement can provide so much more than mere money can ever do.
