They should exempt poor from prop tax and realize income tax will cause house prices to fall. I think that we need as a nation to get back to strict education only and forget the sports and other perks for public education. If parents want for their child then they should get them involved themselves and pay for it. We also need to have more online education so maybe kids work at home two days and at school three days. maybe only for teenagers and have access at the libraries or such.
No, they should put a levy in that exempts poor/borderline poor. If not poor then no problem for them to pay. People moved to Hamilton township to avoid taxes and this will bring down property values as sure as bad schools. Issue is that the poor earners or not should be exempt not the elderly or those living off non-earned income.

I would love to see the artificial turf organizers get together and organize a private school for Little Miami district. Or maybe more dissatisfied parents could utilize the virtual learning ideal. Their children could get their education in the comfort and luxury of their own homes. Either one of those ideals would solve the problem of school overcrowding and end the need to build more schools and raise taxes. Just think of the prestige!
Really we should just close down all the schools and let people fend for themselves. I am sure that the places you all are in life right now have nothing to do with the fact that you got a good education from the public schools. Didn’t you read the article? The district IS separating their wants and needs and doing everything they can to save money. Stop complaining. Be proactive and use your votes and voice to make the legislature find a fair, equitable and adequate funding system.
It’s always one thing or another.It seems the system wants to blame everybody for not having enough money.why wasn.t this school built bigger to begin with.I think whoever was on the planning com. should be held responsible.why should us taxpayers always be held accountable!If money is what needs to be saved take a look at some of the salaries.I believe the pres. makes over 100gran.kind of overpaid isn’t he?Money-raising my taxes SORE SUBJECT……..
No. With the increase in everything else I think that this school district needs to do what everyone else is doing, learn to separate their “wants” from their “needs”. For instance, Little Miami doesn’t NEED artificial turf. The levy will be on the ballot about the same time that gas hits $4 or more a gallon and people will be seeing an increase in Duke Energy bills. Has anyone on this school board noticed the home foreclosure rate in Hamilton Twp.?
I moved to a township to avoid taxes. This is nearly a 50% increase in my school taxes if this passes.
If seniors have a hard time paying, we need to work with them. In a way to help them not worry about money, allow schools to place a lein against their property with interest and when the home is sold, collect the money.

This pits old versus young, workers versus non works. It is a game changer that results in winners and losers.
