As a former speech and debate coach, baseball coach and 25-year teacher in the Auburn Schools I strongly support the levy.
Without activities and athletics many students would not be successful in their school years.
Each year I had students who were successful in school due to their training in activities and athletics that gave them structure, discipline, leadership skills and many other skills that they were able to use in all of their classes and life. Please support the programs that make our kids successful.
Being able to spend time with each student is so important, and providing vital educational programming including career and technical education; gifted, honors and Advanced Placement programs, and English Language Learners are top priorities if Auburn’s schools are to succeed in helping students’ achieve their highest potential.
Support the kids.
