WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE FACING THE KELLY SCHOOL DISTRICT?

The most important issue facing the district is to provide students, teachers and administrators with the essential resources needed to maintain a high level of education amid forthcoming legislation and budget cuts.

I believe that being a resident of the district for over forty years, a 1985 Kelly graduate and a father of Kelly students gives me an understanding of the needs of the district.
