I would

like to say this survey is very off base. When describing

the year-round school, they describe a system, which of

course, would be the least desirable one for most

parents. Where a child would go just like they do now,

but would be off for either summer semester, fall or

spring semester.

I don't

consider this year-round school at all. It's the same

system we have now. How would they even begin to

coordinate siblings in the other schools to be on the

same schedule?

Year-round

school should be when students actually go year round,

with a few weeks between each semester. This way they are

able to retain their knowledge from one semester to

another better, instead of having one long break, such as

summer. I realize this may not, however, help on the

overcrowding.

I think

this survey was home to scare parents into voting for

SPLOST. Yes, once again they will try to put this before

the people, spending however much wasted money again, to

get a vote.

The only

thing to stop the overcrowding would be for the school

board, who know our schools are overcrowded, to get

together with the county commissioners, who think we

don't have a problem (obviously because they continue

with their subdivisions everywhere and rezone anything

that suits into what they consider the image they want).

Instead,

they continue to put the public in the middle. The more

subdivisions and rezoning they approve, the more crowded

our schools get. It's simple math. When election time

comes, please do your homework, people, before you vote.

I would

also like to mention that some teachers and officials are

telling their students to go home and tell their parents

to vote for SPLOST. I had better not have this happen to

my child, because if any teacher or official drags my

child in on this, they will be hearing from my lawyer.

I'm not

scared!
