The Redondo Beach School Board wants to float a bond in
order to fund technology upgrades and solar panels, the same district
leadership that is begging (or threatening) residents to support Governor Brown’s tax hikes or the district
will have to close the schools down for seventeen days.
With this kind of district leadership, perhaps its about time that voters start recalling the school board members. The district has failed to budget properly for the schools, with drastic cuts planned to take immediate effect next year if the voters do not pass another tax hike on wealth creators in the state.
Assemblyman Tim Donnelly of Apple Valley has proposed that city leaders start laying off current city employees and contract out public services to experience retirees who will volunteer their time and effort. The cities in the state of California cannot afford to pay retired workers the same salary for not working, then take money from current workers who are trying to make the most with less and less.
When voters reconsider giving money until school boards preparing and implement a plan to cut costs, spending, and overruns in bureaucracy, then our schools will do more, our students will learn more, and everyone else will have more.
