Why I Support the Bond Proposal!

Greg Howard Board of Education President Lifelong Resident of Lecompton	“As a member of the board for the past 17 years, I would like to en- courage you to support this Bond Proposal. Four great communities make up our school district with pride, tradition, and excellence in our schools." "My wife, my children and I have all attended the schools within this district. I feel strongly that we need to improve our facilities for the kids in our district and for the future of our schools." "Please join me in voting YES on November 2.”

Bob Shirley Farmer Lifelong Resident of Grantville	“I support the bond proposal for many reasons. State financial help, which pays 22%, may not be available later. There are interested parties in buying PMS & WES New facilities will help attract and keep good teachers. Good schools are an asset to the community and district. Our kids deserve the best we can give them. The time is right.”

	“The schools in our district need updates to help support our children. They deserve a private place to work and meet with small groups, as well as a place for large assemblies and activities. We all need to keep the children of this district our #1 priority.”
Nancy Gantz Teacher for 16 years in USD 343 Lifelong Resident Graduate of PLHS District Parent

	“I support the USD 343 Bond Proposal because it is a very good proposal." "The timing is right." "Our children deserve a great education in an appropriate educational setting." "It’s the right thing to do.”
Doug Bowman Coordinating Council on Early Childhood Development Services Resident & Parent in District

	"After thorough consideration, I will vote yes." "It is never easy to vote for a tax increase, but this proposal will allow students a better opportunity to achieve the goals and standards required by Q.P.A. and No Child Left Behind."
Paul Bahnmaier Public School Teacher for 38 years

Cyndi Treaster District Parent	“I think my son has had an excel- lent opportunity to become a really well rounded individual in our district. Not only has he been able to develop academic skills but to also excel in music and sports. The bond will assure that we have strong programs for the future. We will be able to conserve staff time and resources by not requiring them to travel between buildings and by sharing facilities like band and vocal music rooms, shop, locker rooms and gymnasiums. I’m especially excited to see our community school, Lecompton Elementary, enlarged to meet the current and future needs of our children.”
