A vote for schools is a vote for the city

The most striking thing you can notice in this town is that you can never tell where the school ends and the city begins. It seems as if the whole community can be found at Doc Harris on game day, The Camas High School band at the treelighting downtown, or simply in the vibrant faces of our yourth that are seen around town.

Our schools are special, and they continue to need our support. The upcoming vote to renew the existing M/O and tech lev[ies] would be a vote to keep Camas Camas. Nothing new would appear on your tax bill, and the small increase of one or two dollars ensures no hole is left in funding due to changing state contrubutions. These levy renewals will ensure students can continue to enjoy extracurriculars; advanced learning programs; textbooks; and [the] full-service health room that are quintessential to our schools' succes. Without your vote, we run the risk of losing what makes Camas distinctly Camas. As a studeny, I urge you to continue the tradition of support that has built the backbone of this town: Vote Yes, Camas on February 14th.
