Really , Are we ever going to quit playing the race card. I graduated from the district in 1985 and there was nothing wrong with it then. Whats wrong with people going to school where they live or closest to this spot. Give me a break , the money that could be saved in transportation cost alone would be large. My thoughts have nothing to do with politicians , i dislike most of them . Get over it!!!!!

I am glad the appealed courts brought these politicians back down to earth. Dusty McDaniel and Mike Beebe were hot dogging to the end zone and taunting their opponents when they won the battle but the game was not over. Shame on them, the sensible thing to do was to gradually reduce the payments to do school districts. I lost a lot of respect for them and I will vote against them in future elections.
