To the Editor:
The Raymond school levy is coming up for renewal soon. I would like to ask the citizens of Raymond to support our children by voting for the replacement levy. A yes vote would not raise your taxes; it only continues the current tax.
Children are our future and supporting their education will benefit them and the community as a whole. This financial support by the community allows a school to offer a higher quality education by providing things such as smaller class sizes, additional support staff, extra curricular activities, and many other resources that benefit children.
As a Raymond graduate, a school nurse for 18 years, and now a proud grandmother of a Raymond preschooler, I appreciate your continued support of the Raymond School District.
