Letter: Keep the Pasco School Board in place
I appreciate the Pasco School District administration, its highly qualified superintendent and the school board, all of whom have been enduring quite a lot of flak recently.
The superintendent and her team have done an amazing job to cope with years of extreme growth. Their outstanding fiscal management has created a very successful building program to deal with the recent years of growing population, with four new schools open this year. What a daunting responsibility that is and what skill it takes. And this doesn’t even mention their concerns for hundreds of new school staff and students.
Pasco has not stopped growing yet. Voters should think three times before changing a school board team that has served them so well. I hope you voters will go for the present school board members who have been serving you so well.
