Non-Residents Force Towns To Pay Extra?

By

The town of Brookline, MA is about to ask residents to vote for an additional $7,655,000 beyond their current school budget. This is $450 extra property tax per homeowner beyond the thousands per year they are currently paying. The schools claim that this money is needed due to 1,200 new students that have entered the system from 2004 to 2014.

What they are not telling you is that a large amount of these new students are non-resident students. These non-residents causing local citizens to pay for their expenses.

Tomorrow we will look at another giant rip off the town is about to ask voters to approve.

Parents Agree: Y3K Tutor In Your Home Changes Lives #7

PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES

“Our Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutor has provided excellent academic support to my 7th grade son. Last year we had battles and tears over homework. This year with Jerry’s weekly tutoring, not only has my son’s resistance to homework and studying decreased, his grades have gotten better and better with Jerry’s help and guidance. He has an ability to relate to my child that somehow engages and challenges him to think at the same time. He never tells my son what the answers should be, but asks good questions, turns learning into something fun and provides clear academic structures and support all at the same time. He is easy to work with and a delight to have found. I’m happy that my son is so agreeable to working with him and I, for one, couldn’t be happier with the services we have received from Y3K. Everything from science lab reports, to math and writing Jerry seems to have a way to help both my son and me through the homework and demands of 7th grade.”

If your child absolutely hates reading and wants nothing to do with a book, talk to the children’s room librarian at your local library.

HOW TO MAKE KIDS WANT TO READ #5: Reading Level

Have your child choose books that they can read successfully on their own. Don’t let your child choose what they would like to read if it is way above their reading level. They will end up skipping over words or sections and not comprehend what they are reading. They will eventually give up and use this as a reason to support their opinion that reading is boring. If books are chosen that they struggle to read, they will lose interest in reading altogether.
