re: THANK YOU! - LP Residents Voted NO to NEW TAX

Ascension schools can pay teachers $5,000-$6,000 more

If parents of students want to give their kids’ teachers a $5k raise, why not have the parents give the teachers a $5k tax-free, cash bonus each year? A class of 20 students would cost $250 per each student.

Early voted no, but given the number of families in LP, the tax will probably pass.
I really hope I'm wrong because local taxes are highest compared to neighboring parishes and spending is misdirected because an itemized budget for the monies is never created.

I canceled your yes, so his no counts

Don’t worry, I cancelled your “no” out.

Well as it turns out it appears that I canceled your yes vote out and then some.

I live in a highly Red district. I get to vote for MTG. And we pass every tax hike that is proposed As long as it goes to the schools.

And they thank you when the school administration goes to the beach, or Disney, on a taxpayer funded vacation masked as a conference.

The local school district here ruined their claim for a need of a new tax when they cried about supplies and lack of money for sports and then they were busted doing that.
