I have been reading Dr. Hayes very long response to the questions we've posed over the last week. Part way through he writes something I think is very important for all of Beverly to hear:

"As the educational leader of this community, however, the citizens of Beverly need to know that we are at a crossroads. Over the last several years we have chipped away and chipped away at the kind of education we should be providing the children of Beverly ... That difference in quality has a direct correlation to the perceived quality of a community. And that has a direct impact on all Beverly citizens. If you think these cuts to education don’t affect you, you are wrong. Yes, it costs a lot to educate a child; it costs even more if you don’t. "

Julie reiterates a very valid point! That jumped out at me as well!
