The school board candidates were the only ballot issues for DougCo so it took us like five minutes to complete our ballots. More time spent researching the candidates.

So I guess I'm done caring. If you can't homeschool or afford private school, I don't care. You get the teacher's union "solution." No matter how special your snowflake is, no choices for you, but failure.

Yes, I will remind my neighbors often. It started a conversation at my current workplace and I was surprised to see how many people were upset by this too. I thought I was a minority in this red county.
Didn't even cost me one cent to drop it in the box at the PPD. I was going to Lowes anyway.

Yea, pisses me off too and my kids are long since gone out of the system.

That said, I do have a special needs grandson that is taking advantage of some DougCo programs.
