Schoenlein vows to eliminate extracurriculars such as sports and band if Kettering school levy fails
Kettering schools officials say they would eliminate all 2011-12 extracurricular activities — including sports and band — and reduce busing to state requirements if voters reject the district’s 4.9-mill property tax levy Nov. 2.
“If your back is to the wall, and the voters say no in November, I don’t think you can justify continuing to fund those things,” Superintendent James Schoenlein said Thursday, Sept. 9, during a meeting with the Dayton Daily News editorial board. “They become frills.”
Ok. This would be a bad idea why? First of all they won’t become “frills”, they already are “frills”. Explain for us, Doctor, why taxpayers should finance these extracurricular activities? I’ve lived in Ohio for almost fifteen years now and I have yet to understand the government dependency mindset. When I lived in Missouri, if students/parents wanted to be involved in sports, they paid for it themselves, not government schools. It was the same in Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and even out in Utah to name a few.
Keep this quote in mind from Dr. James Schoenlein, Kettering Government Schools Superintendent from 10 February 2010: “On what grounds do I have to slash the budget?!?”

I was on my way home from work listening to the radio when the first announcements about the World Trade Center being attacked came in around 8:50AM. The initial report I heard claimed that a small single-engine plane had crashed onto the roof of North Tower (1 WTC). When I got home just a few minutes later and turned on the news I was saddened to see the horrifying truth.
My wife came in the living room to see what was happening and she asked what I thought about it. I said I had a gut feeling it was terrorism in spite of what they were stating at the time that it was a tragic accident. She looked at me in disbelief and asked if I was sure. Then from the right side of the screen we then saw the second aircraft come into view and strike the South Tower. My fears were then confirmed.
Keep this in mind as we remember our friends and loved ones who perished nine years ago today: democRATs saw the attacks by AlQueda during the 1990s as a law enforcement issue and not as a threat to national security. Emperor Karl Rove put it best when he said, “Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.” They hate the fact that he was 100% correct. Their cowardice is still evident today in their wanting to abandon the mission in Iraq and Afghanistan.
