STOP RIGHT THERE: In these uncertain financial times, this is a proposal once again to raise taxes by $34,000,000 in the first year alone AND it approves six more years in advance of about the same level of spending. Throwing money at a system just won't fix it! 
Mesa Public Schools is an 'under-achieving' public education system that has delivered a poor performance track-record for decades for students after they enter 3rd grade - and all the way through community colleges.
This propaganda does not bother to tell you that. That's just one thing.
> The Superintendent of Mesa Public Schools Michael Cowan was forced to resign last year for 'financial irregularities" or so they didn't say when the line spoon-fed to the public was that 'he got a calling to go an LDS mission" to an undetermined location!
Attract Jobs – Protect Our Quality of Life
Isn't there already a QUALITY OF LIFE sales tax here in Mesa for that?
Why Support Mesa Schools?
Mesa’s schools have built a long-standing reputation for being among the best in the entire State of Arizona.  Quality, competitive schools are one of the key reasons that we enjoy such a safe, family-friendly community.
HUH? Among the best in the entire State > THAT IS NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT!
Arizona CONSISTENTLY ranks #49 in all 50 states off low academic standards and failure to deliver basic proficiency standards. Arizona ranks 48th in school funding and we are far behind when it comes to investing in our schools.
