The HSA Phone-a-thon for RHS Library fell short of its goal

The HSA Phone-a-thon fell short of its goal, raising $48,000 – still quite a bit of money. Last year people gave, but they did not realize that this would be an annual event. It is like feeding a stray cat, they will keep coming back.

The library renovation should be part of the school budget. By putting this important project aside, the BOE thought that they could pass their budget without a vote. Then they phone the parents for money. The library renovation should have been in the budget and some of the sports spending should have been removed. Priorities people! All students can use the library, but the benefits of the lighted turf field are questionable.

Have a Phone-a-thon for field maintenance or to pay the lighting bill, or to pay for the over-priced football program.
