To the editor:
People have been moving into the Jackson area for many, many years; one of the reasons is the good reputation of the Jackson school system. We want to continue to prepare students, in adequate facilities, for their future. As enrollment continues to grow, we need to prepare for that growth.
For many years we taught in the Jackson school system and had two children who graduated there. They were well prepared for their future university education and future employment. Money spent on schools is money well spent. Our back yard joins school property. We watch teachers tirelessly instructing pupils, day after day. We are 100 percent for improving our schools by approving the upcoming bond issue.
HUGHES AND DORIS DAVAULT, Jackson
