THE state falls short of its constitutional obligation to fund education and thus public schools have grown dependent on levy funding for the basics in education, such as textbooks, librarians and structurally sound buildings.
One more reason to grab those special-election ballots and check "yes" on school money measures.
In the Puget Sound region, Seattle, Bellevue, Issaquah, Federal Way, Kent, Lake Washington, Mercer Island, Northshore, Riverview, Shoreline, Tahoma, Snoqualmie Valley and Tukwila have levies on the ballot.
For most school districts, the operating levy represents 25 percent of their budgets. The capital levies pay for basic maintenance. Those are things a school cannot survive without.
A court ruling that state funding is inadequate compels the Legislature to do more. But this imbalance in funding won't disappear overnight.
Until schools are fully funded, the public should support schools by voting "yes" on school levies.
Summary: This is about a levies on campus that it is like a election course. Their budget represent 25% and the court said the funding will be balance.
Response: Like I just said,this is interesting that to encourage young people to join the army and
you may have several guarantee by the court and government.

I don't think the article talk about the young people join the army. this is a kind of tax to get from students, of course I disagree this kind of tax, totally ridiculous, get from us. Students need money, don't need give away the money to goverment or any education organization. Students paid the large tuition and shouldn't pay more. Where is the goverment funding? Why does the organization need us to give away money? it should focus on the education attitude not only receive the taxes.
