The pay1 The benefits’ The retirement plan’ The health plan ’ I was told recently by a member of the hoard, that a teacher in our district wrote him and stated that he she had had 4-5 years of college and was a "professional1’-and then asked what qualifications he had to be on the scNxil board Not only has this member been a responsible, caring, decent and suc cessful person with years of ex perience and skills which far surpass what many teachers could ever hope to achieve-«Hit in that other world the real one. he has also been elected and then re elected again at ieast once to this position Although we all know that our teachers are allowed to hide behind the perfectly legal security of their tenure, (after only three years) wouldn't it he interesting to see who and how many would be re-elected to their positions it put to the vote of the people? do you as voters think your reaction would hasc been about a year ago if the board had sal down with the teachers and said "sure, we ll give you a raise You deserve it W e all know you do The voteiVtaxpaycrs have said " n o " to practically all our levy requests in the last 3-4 years, we have virtually no money in our reserve, we re operating in the Safe ty Net. our fleet of buses is falling apart, and the Feds mandate that we spend a fortune on our asbestos pro blem But we ll forge ahead and maybe get lucky with the next levy Would that have been a responsible way to proceed? And exactly what has changed since then1 Thus far. I’ve not heard any prac tical. w«>rkable solutions MCEA's anger at the board should instead be pointed toward th«>xe who go to the polls The board has simply digested the information they 've gotten from elections and public opinion and are acting accordingly I just have one suggestion Why not set it up as a referendum to the people’ Should Morrow County tea« hers get a salary increase beyond the increase in their benefits and nor mal step increases ’ Yes or no " Or better yet. what about the serial levy to cover the increases MCEA pro poses l>et the people decide once and for all They are the ones who ultimately decide at the polls anyway Let's take the heal off the Niard and the teachers Let's stop this bickering which is reducing our professional teachers («if which we do have many) to sounding like pro fcssional longshoremen Ixt there be peace in M«>rrow County again (s) Sue Proudfoot Former Morrow Co Schools Budget Committee member, lone Heppnerite furthers cause for leukemia victim To the Editor: Recently an article appeared in this column regarding a 19 year old w«>man who has leukemia Her on ly chance of survival is with a Nine marrow transplant Her husband is a student who w«>rks parttime, they have a b month old child, and no medical insurance They are asking for the help of O egonians to raise part of the expense of the transplant In the Service M arine Sgt.
