Writer urges support of building bond

To The Eagle:

Since we received our school board election ballot on Saturday the 6th, it’s time to fill it out with a positive approval and get it back to the auditor’s office in Cathlamet or South Bend.

I want all of you eligible voters to remember that it was our parents and neighbors within our school districts nationwide that provided the schools we were educated in and now, ladies and gentlemen, it is our turn to return the favor.

I want all of you to read what you are paying with the $8.1 million; your yes vote will provide and it will be available to all the kids who attend our Naselle-Grays River Valley School for many years after the bond is paid and all the students who receive the education we have provided will be able to enter a good college if they desire and if they choose to enter the employment field they will be successful parents to their children and our community.

Don’t look at your ballot for the next two weeks and fail to vote in time for it to be counted.

I personally believe we have a great school district and the things that are going to be modernized will benefit all of us.

Respectfully,

Robert Larson
