Measure K

Arguments For

• Health and safety benefits guaranteed for entire community
• Returns students to classroom through a truancy court program and allows schools to recover lost money from the daily attendance
• Money raised will be used for the student’s benefit to graduate knowing how to read and write
• Supply students with after school tutoring programs
• Next year school budget will be reduced another $10 million
• The parcel taxes and bond measures will bring good teachers and will repair old classrooms and build new elementary schools

 

Arguments Against

• The new parcel tax could be used to fill holes in the district’s budget caused by wasteful spending such as:

- District radio and TV shows $42,670

- Catered meals $36,235.78

- Travel budget overruns $36, 847.62

- Credit card audits $20,000

- School boards association dues $130,960

• There’s no requirement that any of the $ used for measure k goes to increase student’s safety or the used of modern technology
