Saw similiar situations in most of the School Districts that I called on during the Plawenty years in Minny. It was brutal on most Districts. Budgets were cannibalized and Teachers gave up pay and Bennies and doubt if these were ever fully replace after Dayton took over.


Dealing with food Service,saw first hand how Lunch Staff Personnel had to go begging in order to feed their Schools Nutritional needs. Some of my small Rural Districts had to make do with donations because of short falls in State Funding.

And it hurts the Kids. But some Grain Farmer got his Real Estate Tax Rebate Check will bitching about why he should have to use his Tax money to fund before school and reduced or free Lunch's. Oh by the way,same assholes claim those kids can share books like he did when he was a kid.

Yup,walked to School every day,uphill both ways. Yup!!
