As President of Point Dume Marine Science Elementary School PTA, I am writing to affirm our school’s support for Measure R. We had the chance to discuss Measure R in detail last week, and our PTA reaffirmed out position to support Measure R because we know how important the renewal of this local funding is, particularly with the volatility of state funding so apparent.
We have heard so much about the funding for our schools in the past few weeks. Quite simply, by voting Yes on R, we are ensuring that vital funding for teachers, important academic programs in our schools and smaller class sizes can continue-without raising tax rates. This election is the time to do it. We must support programs that make our Malibu schools and our community so special. I strongly encourage voters to vote Yes on R in this Feb. 5 election.
