Mark your calendar!

One of the best ways to educate the public on an important voting matter is to engage us in conversation.  While all of the dates listed below will offer us an opportunity to ask questions, the community forum on December 12 is especially important in that it offers guided tours of the high school facilities.  Why is that noteworthy?  Aside from athletic and other co-curricular events, most of us are not familiar with the current condition of the high school's interior.  And yet the beating heart of the 2014 bond addresses just that:  the condition of the school's infrastructure and how it impacts the future of Ferndale's youth.  

It is no secret that Ferndale High School is old, sprawling, and outdated.  But with an expectation of saving money, some might favor remodeling over new construction.  Before we make that verdict, we need to ask ourselves a valid question:  How long can we expect a bandage to hold repairs before the size of repair grows too large for the bandage?
