    But property taxes are already outrageous
  • I’m not voting for anymore property tax hikes no matter what it’s going to go to! It getting to be ridiculously high!
  • In NC the “education lottery” is supposed to fund our schools but I lived here before the “education lottery” and the schools were in better shape before it.

    Why do they need to build a new school aside the current school
  • The Pot money was not passed to go for primarily for rural schools. I voted on that one…
  • They don't need any more cash then because everything is done online an not doing there job as teachers an staff.
  • I could have sworn the outrageous "pot tax" was supposed to go directly to schools? I ingest copious amounts of marijuana so your children can get a quality education. 😂 Have the legislators been so busy giving themselves raises they forget the responsibilities of their office?
  • Americans thinking “We not me”……….its a Christmas, Spring, Summer. Autumn miracle

    Making schools safer for children to protect them from active shooters and slow, scared police response would be the only reason to ask for additional funds. It's never enough money. smh
