SPLOST is a great idea!

SPLOST is not just benefitting the "Future

Adult," but also the present adults. We definitely

have a problem with crammed schools. This problem is

rapidly increasing and with the amount of students that

are in the schools now, makes it even more difficult to

get your child's teacher to give the child individuality.

Parents want their children

to grow up and become successful in life. In order for

your child to become successful they need to learn.

Children learn better when his or her teacher actually

sits down with them. If the child is having trouble, the

teacher could help them out. That is my definition of

Individuality. With this the children and "Future

Adults" will learn better and feel better about

themselves and this will benefit the parents greatly.

Nothing would make a parent more happy then to see his or

her child succeed in life.

Another great point is the

schools are crammed. This problem gets worse every year.

It is very difficult to learn in an environment that is

crammed and this leads to stress on teachers to make sure

everyone understands the material they have been taught.

The money from SPLOST will also go to building schools.

This will help diminish the problem of crowded schools.

Thus, more individuality will result from this.

Starr's Mill is still

without a stadium. Another part of the money from the

SPLOST would have gone to helping build the stadium.

Imagine being in the place of one of the students or

being 17 again. Definitely, you would want to experience

the feeling of having a true home game. Starr's Mill can

not do that yet because there is no stadium. The seniors

this year will not get to experience this but there are

still juniors, sophomores, and freshman that will one day

be seniors and will want to experience a true home game.

I, among many other people,

are dissatisfied with the rejection of SPLOST. Aren't

your children, and children alike, a good enough reason

as to why this should be invoked? We are the future!
