Editor:

Please join us in supporting the school budget override on the Nov. 4 ballot. The passage of this issue will not result in increased taxes for anyone, rather the continuation of an existing tax.

Payson public schools perform at a very high level and they do not make the negative headlines that we read about so many other schools throughout our state.

Our public schools are a point of local pride due to the efforts of dedicated teachers, staff and administration. The critical mix of lower classroom sizes, enriching extra-curricular activities and successful sports programs makes for a total learning environment wherein both the student and the community are winners.

Be proud of your past support for our local schools and please continue your support on Nov. 4 by voting yes on the school budget override question.
