What needs to be driven home is that the state education budget shortfalls only exacerbated a already existing habit of wrongful spending. Now that the CG district has spent all the money rather foolishly -- and with their fiscal backs to the wall -- they are begging for money while inciting fear that we may have to cut teachers. Don't believe it! The money is there to be cut. I agree. What needs to be driven home is that the state education budget shortfalls only exacerbated a already existing habit of wrongful spending.

Now we hear a plea for more to cover educational needs. Sorry, I’m tapped out–My money got gobbled up by the new football field and the increased sales tax so there is none left for education. This typifies what is wrong with our educational system-too much emphasis on sports and extra curricular functions and not enough on education. Just ask Franklin Central residents.
