A community votes ...

On Tuesday, residents in the Manchester Community Schools District approved a $2.5 million bond proposal that will help the district pay for much needed expenses. With the uncertain future of public school funding from the state, it's nice to see the community stepping up and helping the school district with safety and technological updates.
Our children are our future and they need the educational tools to succeed in life. It is up to us as a community, despite these hard economic times, to help foster the education of students at MCS.
Despite the bond's passage, Superintendent Shanw-Lewis Lakin has mentioned budget cuts for the upcoming school year are still inevitable. I am interested to see what the community can expect in the coming months.
