Build the school. Our kids deserve this great opportunity. This school proposal is a wonderful idea to educate our kids in their hometown. The people behind this are our parents and neighbors. They are people who have invested in this city as families and business men and women. If we don't support this, why did we become a city? Everyone should be behind this, Parents, Grandparents, Religious leaders, educators, Police Chief, Fire Chief and Council members alike. Speak out publicly and support this important community effort. Transparancy, for what? It's a charter school proposal for goodness sake. Who are these naysayers? That's the transparancy I want. Who in their right mind would be against a school like this? Are they people who just hate kids? Forget the cost, we are a wealthy community that just spent millions on a utility we never needed and are about to spend another 50 grand for a report that a citizen UAB already accomplished. This inititive is an investment in the future of our children and our community. It is about legacy our future and growth. It is for our children. It is a statement about Marco Island and the people who live here. Support this project. This is something our entire city can get behind and support. Your neighbors have worked hard for this, it is for our kids and is a worthy cause. Let's just do it.
