HERE IS WHY:

The Albany City School Board
should be dissolved.

No more school budget votes.

of the 200 million dollar high
school should stand. The voters
have spoken.


The February 9 revote annulled.

Albany should return to a K-8
neighborhood school system.

The roof of the current High School
should be repaired.

This campus should be set aside
for students who value learning
and intend to go on to higher
education as well as become
good citizens.

Hackett Middle school should
become a GED charter school
for  students who would be best
served by learning practical
life skills, how to read, write

consolidated with city government.
