We recently did a little mini-study within our district, asking kids whether they think voting is important, ~75% responded "Not really". :rolleyes:

When I saw people taking their children to the polls with them, I thought "man that's great!", I don't really care about whether or not their voting for Governor Goodhair.

Your local school board is more important that the state board in many ways...in fact in most ways.

And so is the principal of your school. When my kids were in elementary school their principal died suddenly during the summer. The school board hired temporary principals and the teachers were left floundering. That year was a waste of time for both kids in terms of education.

Im back, and now a homeowner and resident of NJ :p. Yesterday was pretty much hell at the closing as the unit is still not complete. Im only at work until 11:30 today then I have to go home and take deliveries of furniture. No internet at home for another 2 weeks :mad: but at least we are out of that dump of a hotel "Quality Inn" in Long Island City.
