Letter: Support school property tax

I’m voting yes to the education property tax proposal. People complain about paying another tax. They say the state should fund schools and teachers’ pay with other state funds.

At the pace the state moves on public school education, there will not be improvement on this issue in my lifetime. If you want to know how people feel about public school education, just ask anyone who has paid to send their kids to private school.

I don’t see why there is a problem for our residents to pay into a fund to improve our public schools. It’s about time we do something substantive for public school education.
