Dear TH patrons,
Oakland has said they are not coming to Tekamah & Lyons won't send their kids to Craig for a Burt Co school.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Dear #votenofornow please explain what you would like us to vote yes on and when. Thank you. #thetimeisnow

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

As patrons, we are given the great responsibility to vote on educational issues in a way that benefits our children, not us as patrons.

Strong Schools, Strong Communities #endorses 'The Time Is Now' group because their primary focus is on kids.

Article excerpt: TH board member commented, "(...an OC board member's) comment to me was that there is a 0% chance of OC coming to Tekamah."

Strong Schools, Strong Communities support the direction our 3 districts are now headed. #kidsfirst

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

We encourage LD to consider BR & OC consolidation options. #weneedkids

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

As hard as we fought to defeat the Burt Co. School, we will fight even harder if Logan View is considered as a consolidation option for OC.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

There is zero chance that LD & OC will even consider attending school in Tekamah. You can take that off the table. Absolutely won't happen!

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

We now shift our attention to the November bond issue. Getting a new school in Tekamah is a priority.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Strong Schools Strong Communities is glad the Burt County High School option is off the table. Our work is not done though.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Thank you TH residents. You spoke loud & clear. #65%

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Please vote to save our school.

Consolidating is a bad idea for TH because:
5) our town will suffer a significant economic loss and face property value depreciation.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Consolidating is a bad idea for TH because:
4) projections point to minimal or no property tax savings compared to building our own school.

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Consolidating is a bad idea for TH because
3) there will be a major loss of opportunities for our students. Big schools = less participation

[Strong Schools @strong_schools]

Consolidating is a bad idea for TH because:
2) there will be no additional curricular offerings for our students (per Mr Lavaley).
