Buna Schools....New Bond?

 Going to write a brief blog today, I am still recovering from COVID and will make this blog somewhat brief.

Allegedly, there is a move afoot to start supporting a bond of a new junior high. This of course would be placed in the new school-complex which has been the long term goal of the district since the elementary and the "new gym" were built years ago.....And again, where is the new theater promised with the " new gym." ( I will call it that always because that is what it is, an athletic complex,....That happens to have a stage, like may other gyms across this and other states.) 

I know you don't want to think about it, but a lot of kids " thing" is not sports, or music, it is art and drama. We have in the past taken 40 kids to complete in One Act Play contest. Also, a UIL event. 

And, has the elementary bond been paid off?

And how long has it been since the old high school was remodeled and repurposed as the junior high? Has it been 10 years?

What will become of the old/new junior high/high school? I am sure, there will be another re-model there.

And Buna schools have not really grown....

And while the tax rate has not increased, how much has your home appraisal increased over these years? 

Has it gone down?

Money has to come from someplace, and even if it comes from the state/federal government, who do you think is going to pay for it? The money is printed " Out of thin air?" 

People in leadership were also happy that the cost of wages has gone down......That tells me that any teacher with any experience, is moving to a better paying, or just a better district that is better to teach at, and money isn't always a reason for teachers to stay. ( More on this at a later date.If the story I am working on is true, well, you'd just have to fire me, I am not following this rule.....My students were grown-ass people, and I am going to treat them as such, not 4th graders.) 

And there are people upset at the number of new teachers.

Sorry folks, but older teachers, veteran teachers generally better teachers. New teachers generally don't have a clue what they're doing their first few years in the classroom. 

Okay, I am wiped out writing this. 

More at a later date...
