Jewish people are ruining my school district! (and needless to say, I'm majorly pissed!)

I'm being deadly serious here. You see, we just had a budget vote. If the budget didn't pass, they were gonna cut tons of things. If it passed, we woulda been slightly better off.

Among the things they were planning to cut is something called Twilight School. You might not have this in your district, so I'll explain. It's like night schooll, but for people whose original lauguage is not English. Twilight School helps those people learn English. I can't believe that's been cut, along with many extracurriculars. Apparently they're cutting all sports. ALL of them. Meaning that now we have no chance of getting sports scholarships, which means that quite a few people are sort of...screwed, because they were depending on it. But the thing that shocked me the most is that they are now cutting Kindergarten. That's right, no typo. KINDERGARTEN. I couldn't believe my ears. When my friend heard that, she said, "We're gonna have some dumbass kids comin' up here!!" I couldn't have said it better myself.

So, yeah. Rant over. See you-

Wait, no, not done! I haven't told you why I said Jewish people did it. I repeat, no offence to Jews. I have a few Jewish friends myself.

Okay, so. The Hasidic (sp?) Jews who live in my district voted "No" to the budget, voted no for Kindergarten, because they wanted to funnel more money into THEIR schools. How exactly, I've zero clue. It's not like they tell me, a mere high schooler. But if they were told to vote no, they voted no. And now the sports are all gone, other extracurriculars vanished, Kindergarten and Twilight School dead and gone, and even more crap that I don't even know about.

...Talk about unfair. If the kids could vote, maybe we coulda made a difference.

Oh well. Too late now.



...whew!! Okay, rant officially over.

Till next time,
