Dear Editor,
Teachers in the Westerville City Schools are as concerned as anyone about cutting to state minimum
requirements if the levy doesn't pass. Teachers are working along with concerned citizens to share correct information
about the district, the impact of the current cuts, and the considerable impact further cuts would have.
Neither school administrators nor teachers nor staff may send information about the levy home
with the students in the district because of state law. We must use public communication tools such as yard signs, direct
mailings, and neighborhood meetings.
I teach in the district, and am a parent of three graduates. I work hard every day to
ensure that my students learn something new, set goals for themselves, and work hard to achieve them. Please support
the levy and help us continue to send Westerville students into the world well prepared to make a difference and contribute
to our futures.
Mary Lightbody
