Time to cough it up.

A number of school district levies took a beating yesterday.

Now if you were one of those voters who think the schools need money and voted yes on a levy, the schools are expecting your check.

Seriously, why don't you cut a check to the schools, or are you the type that just want other people to pay the freight?

In Loveland, 4,314 voters voted yes to the levy. How much money do you think they'll kick in to the schools now that the levy has been defeated?

There is no law preventing anyone from providing a contribution to their local school district. For crying out loud, you can at least send them the $50 you pay for that license plate with your alma mater on it. I've commented before on people who will donate to their college endowment which needs no money v their local public school.

Just a hunch, but I'm thinking you won't be able to buy a happy meal with the money these folks will donate to the school system this year.
