The nice thing is we have enough new schools to include a lot of people.

We felt that we needed to formalize the process for naming schools. The community has an opportunity to be involved. I personally think it has worked extremely well. . . . I hope that future boards will continue to use the same format.

There will be wonderful opportunities to honor people.

I'd like to have students graduating from high school with a sense of what they want to do in post-secondary education. We need to think about at our level what majors and minors we want to provide (if the bill passes).

I would prefer to try to see us end when Christmas break comes.

It's an option being presented to us as a possibility to raise funds for capital outlay. I think it is too premature to know if it would apply to us. We have our sales tax and impact fee, but, obviously, we need to look at everything with the cost of construction going up.
