Without exception, Tracy Casey is the one and only dedicated member, among this collection of amateurs, that we can be proud of. She has worked harder, sacrificed more, and been the most true to her constituency than any other member of this board. To that I say well done, Mrs. Casey, like the great Alan Jepson, you are truly an example for all those in public office to follow.

As a teacher in Milford, I invite you into the classrooms. Get a real sense for what it is like to teach, to divide your time amongst 20 little ones, and to provide instruction that meets the needs of a diverse group. Then talk about class size. Until you have seen it, lived it, and experienced it personally you should not be making top down decisions that will truly damage our district. As Greta said, it's about the kids and what is BEST for them! The previous BOE was truly committed to keeping class sizes small. That made that commitment for a reason.

The three people who had absolutely nothing to say throughout the entire budget discussion, voted against the budget. I wonder if we every will know what they didn't like?
