To the Editor:
I am writing in support of the PPS referendum. The Board of Education has outlined specific plans for needed renovations to our public schools’ buildings. The only mechanism available to the Princeton Public Schools to perform needed facilities improvements is the one they are employing — a referendum that funds the improvements via a bond that stretches the costs across many future years, so that the cost in any one year is not too great.
Our public schools are doing an amazing job of educating a large — and growing! — number of kids. It’s important that we keep the facilities in decent shape so that the schools can continue to do well in their educational mission. more
