Our community desperately needs help. With the March 9th WBCSD Levy failing, our schools have the potential to close. This isn't just about the art program (as many think it is). This is also about THE POTENTIAL CLOSURE OF SCHOOLS. This cannot happen. Our kids and community deserve better. 

If our school district does not get the funding it needs, the following may happen: no extracurricular programs, school closures (Priest Lake Elementary and Idaho Hill could close - leading to large class sizes at Priest River Elementary, job losses for teachers/staff, YOUNG children riding the bus for 2+ hours...), and the list goes on. School closures and job losses will lead to people moving away from our community, which means local businesses will end up suffering. This is so much more than sports and art. This is an entire communities well being.

Our kids deserve an education. They have teachers who WANT to give that to them.

Unfortunately, half of the people who voted March 9th voted no for kids. 

We the people of West Bonner County School District are requesting that the Board of Trustees votes yes on re running the levy in May. And when May comes, we commit to turning out and voting YES for kids.
