41 <br /> : N 0 b 4. <br /> 1 - er . . <br /> vem: <br /> A Message <br /> from the School Board <br /> As members of the School Board,we take great pride in the excellent education <br /> our district provides for the students of the St.Anthony-New Brighton Schools. <br /> We believe that the children of our community are part of a unique educational <br /> environment.We offer a comprehensive educational program in a safe,caring, <br /> personalized environment that reflects the.strengths and values of the St.Anthony <br /> and New Brighton communities. <br /> Our district enjoys a long-standing tradition of excellence.We have dedicated <br /> and talented teachers and staff,and we offer excellent programs for students. <br /> We provide extracurricular opportunities that allow our,children to be involved <br /> and experience success in many ways.And we are committed to providing technology <br /> resources that prepare our students to succeed in the 21st century. <br /> Like many districts throughout Minnesota,though,we are facing a funding dilemma: <br /> Costs are increasing,while funding is not keeping pace.The cost of maintaining, <br /> current programs—including teachers,textbooks and technology—increases every <br /> year,and state per-pupil funding of education is not keeping up.That dilemma leaves <br /> school districts with two options: Find new funding or reduce programs. It's that <br /> UJ simple. <br /> . On November 4, voters will be asked to consider three proposals to help support <br /> the work we do for students:. <br /> O Question 1 will provide additional revenues for technology improvements. <br /> O Question 2 will provide additional revenues for curriculum materials <br /> and support. <br /> O Question 3 will provide additional revenues to help maintain student programs <br /> and services. <br /> These three referendum proposals will help continue our tradition of excellence <br /> for students throughout our district. <br /> We encourage you to give serious consideration to these referendum proposals, <br /> and we look forward to seeing you at the polls on November 4. <br /> Rick Dunn,Chair Barry Kinsey,Treasurer <br /> Mike Volna, Vice Chair Jane Eckert,Director <br /> Denise Dunn,Clerk Dave Evans,Director <br /> St. AnthonymNe' w Brighton . <br /> School District 282. <br /> (over) <br />
