Letter to the Editor: Vote yes for Pentwater school bond

March 25, 2024

Dear Editor,

As a proud member of our local community, I am writing to express my strong support for the upcoming school bond election. Our schools are the heartbeat of the town, and investing in their future is an investment in the future of our children and our community as a whole.

While I understand that the idea of a slight mileage increase may give some pause, I urge my fellow residents to consider the long-term benefits that this bond initiative will bring. Our schools are in desperate need of infrastructure improvements, updated technology, and enhanced security measures to provide a safe and conducive learning environment for our students.

It’s important to acknowledge that this bond initiative is not simply about bricks and mortar; it’s about investing in the next generation of leaders, innovators, and community members. By supporting this bond, we are making a commitment to our children’s future and ensuring that they have access to the resources and facilities they need to succeed.

I recognize that the bond has faced challenges in the past, but the school district listened and adjusted the scope of work to the absolute necessities. I believe that now is the time for our community to come together and rally behind our schools. Our children deserve the best possible education, and passing this bond is a crucial step towards achieving that goal.

I urge my fellow residents to join me in voting YES for the school bond election. Let’s show our children that we believe in their potential and are willing to invest in their future. Together, we can ensure that our schools continue to be a source of pride and excellence for generations to come.

Thank you for considering my perspective and thank you for your continued dedication to our community.

Sincerely,

Lisa Truscott
