Was not funded by taxes, but by private donations from boosters & the community.
As for the arts: one of the most respected choir programs in the state. Band boasts over 200.
Brand new schools for every student k-8 opened in 2017.
Priorities are in order. Thanks for asking
At the end of the day:
1. We want to excel in athletics & academics. They are not mutually exclusive.
2. No one has the right to tell private citizens how to spend their money.
3. Internet trolls and keyboard warriors can kick rocks🤘🏼

The majority of our students are classified as economically disadvantaged. We are a majority minority district. We have amazing teachers, administrators, and a board that believes we can succeed.
That’s the focus of the district.
The athletic department has its job too.
