With the New Sports Betting Law Amendment Passing - and the Expectations of over $100 Million pouring into our Missouri School Systems - there should be No Problems with Paying / Hiring Teachers and Paving and Maintaining the School's Halls and Facilities with Gold - Right? Because that is what happened when the same Law Amendment Passed for the Missouri Lotto - Hell we shouldn't have to worry about the State of Missouri Collecting Property Taxes with all this New Sports Betting Money Rolling In...

100 million over 5 years. 200 plus school districts to distribute to.... I'm guessing it will make zero impact. On the plus side we will increase our free and reduced lunch numbers due to broke parents. We can also expect longer lines and more participants for free school supplies. MERICA!

There is a small amount of grass at the high school, right on the corner of 20th and Indiana. Perfect for a natatorium for our swimmers.

Roi Wood always wanted the high school to have a park like setting. Idiot voters ruined that dream, and the school board perpetuates it. Sleep well.

Casinos in our area have been so detrimental! There is a reason they aren't legalized everywhere. Let's face it, as flawed human race, we can't be trusted with moral issues. King Trump will fix this by becoming the greatest Dictator known to man. Bring on project 2025!
