I for one believe it is time for the school system to live within a budget. Just as the any government agency, spend more so you can get more, this is exactly what is happening and anyone in the system knows it. SAD!

The residents of Dayton showed their support for the city once again. Only a bit over 19 percent of all registered voters voted on the school levy. This shows nearly 80 percent of the city population is too stupid to even care about educating their kids or future generations. The economy has no bearing on numbers voting. Voting is free!
