August 29, 2013 Tax Hearing


As always, these are my opinions only, and not the opinions of the Pendleton County School Board or any other individual board members.

A tax hearing was held on August 29, 2013.  I personally would not consider any number above the Compensating Rate.  The people in our community are struggling to make ends meet.  Plus, how can I justify taking more from our taxpayers when our board voted the previous week to pay for our Superintendent’s doctorate degree.  I want to thank community members for coming out and speaking at our tax hearing.  I realize it is difficult to get up and speak about something you feel passionate about.  However, until more people get involved, our schools and community will never be the best they can be.
