center;\"><strong>Education is important!<\/strong><\/p><p>Education needs to be funded.\u00a0 So why ever vote down a levy?<\/p><p>Well, there are some questions one needs to ask first.<\/p><p>What kind of education is important?<\/p><p>Do we want social engineering, the forcing of cultural norms not in line with parent\u2019s wishes onto our children?\u00a0 Do we want gender change operations and vaccine mandates enforced without parental consent?\u00a0 Do we want pornographic materials given to our children without parental consent?<\/p><p>The vast majority of parents would say <strong><u>no<\/u><\/strong>.<\/p><p>These are the extreme issues of today which are a natural result of a gross error made some 70 years ago.\u00a0 Where did this slide to bad education begin?\u00a0 It began with the removal of the bible and prayer from the schools \u2013 where wisdom, humility, and self-control were taught.<\/p><p>This can be proven by the statistics on divorce, sexual perversion and pre-marital sex all of\u00a0 which dramatically increased not long after this change took place.\u00a0<\/p><p>This is where <a href=\"https:\/\/founders.archives.gov\/documents\/Jefferson\/03-12-02-0095\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our original Jeffersonian Virginia school system<\/a> began, teaching basic reading, writing, and arithmetic with the almost universal moral wisdom from the Bible culturally mandated in those days.\u00a0 That kind of education is the core that is necessary to give a person the tools needed to wisely embark on their own self-education and self-government from there.\u00a0 Experts can get you to where you want to go from there, but not an automated one-size-fits-all, age differentiated, regime of compliance (remember truancy laws?) and cookie cutter diplomas from an assembly line designed to meet the needs of corporate America and the military industrial complex.<\/p><p>The other question is: what kind of funding is appropriate?<\/p><p>In the state of Idaho, the funding of education is required to be provided for by the state.\u00a0 This derives from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northwestordinance.org\/p\/blog-page.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Northwest Ordinance of 1787<\/a>, where education was encouraged and follows with <a href=\"https:\/\/sos.idaho.gov\/elect\/stcon\/article_IX.html\">a section in the Idaho State Constitution requiring the state to fund public education<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p><p>The state of Idaho has set aside some 2.4 million acres of land, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idl.idaho.gov\/about-us\/understanding-endowment-land\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">managed by the IDL, for the purpose of funding education<\/a>.\u00a0 Where has all that funding gone that we need local levies<a href=\"https:\/\/www.merriam-webster.com\/dictionary\/levy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> which are liens against our personal property<\/a>?\u00a0 Why are we being asked to fund millions of dollars locally when we are already taxed on our personal property and robbed of our state lands to supposedly pay for it?<\/p><p>Admittedly, local funding should mean more local control, and that is good but that can\u2019t effectively take place within our public school system with a federal department of education and the <u>National<\/u> Education Association (NEA) influencing the entire system.<\/p><p>The US Constitution does not grant the federal government powers over education and the 10<sup>th<\/sup> amendment of the Bill of Rights requires such unspecified powers to be left to the people and the states \u2013 yet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edweek.org\/policy-politics\/what-the-house-education-spending-bill-would-do-for-schools-in-one-chart\/2021\/07\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we have federal monies<\/a> influencing our local schools!<\/p><p>All this appears more like a control structure than it does a provision for good education.<\/p><p>On top of all of this, we now have the technology to teach virtually with no need for school buildings, classrooms, chalkboards, or even books \u2013 provided we can keep at least a minimum amount of truth available on the internet.\u00a0 Parents can use this technology to give their kids the education they need with minimal cost and effort.<\/p><p>Probably the biggest loss we have suffered due to the failure of public education is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the loss of our history<\/span>.\u00a0 The last few generations of our country don\u2019t appreciate the unique and ingenius system of checks and balances our founders gave to us.\u00a0 They can\u2019t appreciate that because it is derived from a biblical common-law world view which is being denied them.<\/p><p>Forbidding biblical education in public schools is <em>regulating<\/em> religion and is the exact opposite of what Jefferson\u2019s \u201cseparation of church and state\u201d idea and his proposed first public American school system intended.\u00a0 The freedom we have is uniquely derived from the \u201cself evident\u201d truths of rights that we are \u201cendowed by our creator\u201d for.\u00a0 This is the unique thing that is \u201cAmerican\u201d and if we lose that, we have lost America and all it stands for.<\/p><p>The time for centralized and antiquated public school systems is over.\u00a0 We no longer need the state to intervene on this issue.\u00a0 The path from our centralized, censored, mechanistic, atheist school system to one that again creates a person capable of governing themselves in a free society will be a difficult one but the line must be drawn somewhere.<\/p><p><strong>Parents<\/strong>: take responsibility for the future of your kids and teach them at home or at least keep track of what your school board trustees and legislators are doing.\u00a0 It is far easier now than ever before to take responsibility for your child&#8217;s education and with a far higher potential of success than has ever been in the past. You are competing against a dead, socially engineered, monopolistic system. You can beat \u201cdumb and dumber\u201d!<\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\">The ICGG editorial staff,<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ad51852 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ad51852\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b3c4097\" data-id=\"b3c4097\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e3ee03d elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"e3ee03d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-949540c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"949540c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A note from Casey Smith on our Levy situation<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-463245b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"463245b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f7abe64\" data-id=\"f7abe64\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-de6954c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"de6954c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>See more on Casey Smith in our <a href=\"https:\/\/idahocgg.org\/mountain-view-school-district-trustee-race\/\">School Board Election Article<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ae21f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2ae21f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Nothing new with the proposed school levy this year except for a legislative change to allow for the items to be listed on the ballot. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">A long list of hopeful options have always been a part of proposed levies.

Here are some really big whoppers<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">We are being told the CV Middle School was closed as a cost savings. <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">SIMPLY NOT TRUE! The superintendent made it very clear that there <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">would be very little if any savings closing it. Every employee would <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">be retained, and the building would still have to be heated and <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">maintained. It was sold to the board as a security measure. After <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">and only after the vote, the superintendent then said as a result of <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">the moving the 6th grade to CVE another Parapro was needed. Closing <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">the school actually cost the district another $50,000 or whatever the <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">Parapro would make, with salary and benefits.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">Of course the big lie is that the 4 day school week would save us <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">money, a story that the levy promoters still spread around. Again <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">simply not true.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">There are always scare tactics. In 2020 when the original levy amount <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">was presented $4,500,000 the superintendent used the term <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cdevastating\u201d and a third of everything would go away if the levy <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">failed. No devastation, nothing went away.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">In 2021 the original levy amount presented was $4,100,000. The term <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">used this year was doubly devastating. There was no devastation.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #800080;\">That year the sports buses went away and at the same time the <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">superintendent handed out $280,000 of bonuses at Christmas time. Yes <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">that is true. $280,000 would have supported the sports buses.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cPublic Schools are run for the benefit of those who run the schools.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><br \/><strong><span style=\"color: #800080;\">(Thomas Sowell)<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">There is a lot of pork and waste in this year\u2019s union\/MVSD ratified <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">agreement and 4 board members voted for. One example is the district <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">insurance committee. A big push by the union to reinstate employee\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">dependent health benefits. When it ended it was costing more than <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">$900,000 per year at 70% coverage. It is my understanding the union <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">wants the same coverage for their families as the employees have. That <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">is 100% for major medical, optical, dental and preventive and <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">prescription benefits. My inquires tells me the cost will be upwards <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">of $2,000,000.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">The biggest lie is that MVSD went to a 4 day school week because of <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">the levy failure. When I confronted B Edwards, the union mouth piece <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">for the 4 day school week, of which she promoted the shorter week for <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">years, she stated \u201d Of course I wanted the 4 day school week, I was a <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">teacher all those years\u201d. In those years there was no levy failure or <\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">money crunch.

grandmother who has worked with children my whole life.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I am the mother of 9 children, stepmom to 3, helped raise at least 10 other children in my home.\u00a0 I have a bachelor\u2019s degree in education, with minors in child-development, and family and home economics.\u00a0 I taught preschool, K-12 in public schools, including troubled youth programs and children with special needs.\u00a0 I have worked with many state agencies such as juvenile court, family services, drug and alcohol, etc.\u00a0 I taught cub scouts for many years, ran day-care and preschools in my home, and wrote a book with my mother giving people DIY ideas about how to inspire children\u2019s imagination, problem solving skills and independent creative thought using hand\u2019s-on applied education.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">While I was teaching in public schools during the 80\u2019s, I personally witnessed the unethical actions of the teachers\u2019 unions and the agendas they were pushing including levies.\u00a0 I studied the curriculum that was being pushed by the National Education Association and the corporations and entities who were funding them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>I realized that the curriculum the NEA was sending to the state education departments, and the methods used to deliver their ideas into the minds of innocent children were in direct opposition to what actually helps children to be healthy, whole, and happy functional adults.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I was stunned when I saw that the people who were supposed to be looking out for the welfare of children, were actually pushing an agenda that causes children to be far less aware, less creative, socially awkward, and unable to perform most real-life skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I could see the results of this agenda happening to my own children.\u00a0 Public school was causing them great stress and their natural enthusiastic love of learning was shutting off.\u00a0 Instead, they were jumping through public school hoops for grades, and other people\u2019s opinions, or to avoid punishment.\u00a0 The more stressed they got, the less they actually learned. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The stressers in public school came from multiple arenas besides the curriculum and the tests: the synthetic chemicals they were exposed to in the schools, the unnatural learning styles being pushed, sitting in chairs too long, the poor food quality, the push to compete, compare and contend with each other rather than cooperate. The digitization of their minds with technology, the age segregation from the elderly and other age groups whom they could be learning from, the separation from nature and our food chain, and the push to go to college and work for the big corporations instead of farming, logging, \u00a0or making your living using your hands.\u00a0 I realized that the institution of public school was about money and control, not the well-being of children.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I decided to homeschool my children, and continued to do so for many years, while homesteading\/farming, home birthing and learning natural medicines and folk remedies.\u00a0 I participated in cooperative homeschool networks with other families and tried a variety of curriculums. I realized that the best education integrated head and hands together in mental and physical projects that taught real life skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">My youngest child spent most of her time outdoors doing real life projects, learning at own pace, reading when she was ready, and not when the public-school guidelines said she should.\u00a0 She turned out brilliant, capable, and able to interact and work with people of all ages with grace and ease.\u00a0 She taught me that it\u2019s ok to let go of the public-school narrative, and instead listen intuitively and let divine guidance guide us, especially concerning our children\u2019s education.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I&#8217;m not completely against public school. My youngest son went to public school K-12 and was valedictorian, an amazing athlete, with multiple college scholarships.\u00a0 He had many wonderful people, coaches and teachers who inspired him.\u00a0 Some of my children got their GED, some high school diplomas, and some went to work and started their own businesses.\u00a0 I tried to teach them all to be creative, innovative and free thinking, to be kind and respectful of others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Unfortunately, we live in a world that doesn\u2019t want us to raise healthy creative free-thinking children.\u00a0 We live in a world run by billionaire global elitists who own the money systems, and all the mainstream media and other corporate systems that push the globalists world-wide agenda.\u00a0 We must understand what their agenda is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The global elitists who create the public school narratives are satanists who suck the life essence out of children in order to avoid the consequences of their own evil actions (death).\u00a0 Adrenochrome is their personal jet fuel.\u00a0 They take energy and life from children in many ways.\u00a0 They create STRESS so that they can harvest adrenalin from their victims.\u00a0 They created many institutions, like public school to further their agenda, which is to create weak-minded people who will do what they say.\u00a0 Even though we have good people in public schools, the puppet masters at the top control the curriculum, the funding and the tests.\u00a0 They are behind the worldwide pedophile and human trafficking systems.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><u>KIDS AND SEX DON\u2019T GO TOGETHER\u2026in any form<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0(A-Z including LBGT\u2026)!\u00a0 These evil elitists push the sexualization of children because they are identity thieves.\u00a0 It is completely unnatural for a developing child to mix sexually with others while the child is still forming his or her own identity and self-image.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">To be an artisan\/craftsman creative human being requires us to spend our entire childhood learning healthy skills so that we can be a productive member of our world.\u00a0\u00a0 To push any form of sexuality onto children causes IDENTITY CONFUSION.\u00a0 If we don\u2019t know who we are, then we feel stressed and we create adrenaline.\u00a0 That\u2019s what these energy vampires want, for us to be stressed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The elitists make the poisons that create sickness.\u00a0 They cause pandemics, start wars, send our children to fight and die.\u00a0 They manipulate our money and net worth, raise taxes, and create the economics that require both parents to work just to survive.\u00a0 They try to divide and conquer the family, turning one against another over religion, politics, sex or medical plandemics.\u00a0 They digitally addict children to their fake realities, because it\u2019s easier to space out in the meta verse, or video games than deal with real life issues.\u00a0 They undermine our rights and liberties and are radically dismantling all our freedoms.\u00a0 While they attack us deceptively, they tell us that they are doing it all for our own good and the good of our children.\u00a0 If we want to protect ourselves, we must wake up and realize what is happening.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Today the National Education Association and state teachers\u2019 unions are still pushing the same agenda that they were in the 80\u2019s, but more aggressively.\u00a0 The same tactics and misuse of public funds are still being used to push LEVYS.\u00a0 I have never seen a single LEVY improve the quality of our children\u2019s education.\u00a0 More money thrown at the same old problem does not a solution create.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I continue to see hardworking conservative families who DO NOT want their children sexualized by anyone, take the brunt of the globalist\u2019s assaults.\u00a0 Conservative Families, you are under attack.\u00a0 Your children and grandchildren are their targets.\u00a0 They want you to accept their agenda, then pay for it with your own taxes and in return you must give your posterity over to their purposes.\u00a0 If you fight back, you\u2019ll be labeled and condemned by the outspoken sheeples who are still following what they are told by the globalist\u2019s extensive media outlets and institutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Many people must send their children to school in order to work, or because of custody orders, even though many of you would rather find an alternative to public school.\u00a0 I can empathize with both camps. I have been a government employee with a regular paycheck and benefits, and a single-mom self-employed home business owner without any insurances.\u00a0 I know how hard it is for people who have always worked for the government or a big corporation to understand what it is like for the rest of us who live hand to mouth, week to week or by the sweat of our brow, or on fixed incomes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Raising our taxes during a time of severe economic uncertainty, inflation and global unrest causes STRESS.\u00a0 Passing a levy will not help our communities cope with the real worldwide conditions we are facing.\u00a0 It will only further the globalists agenda to kill more people and steal their land.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">We must come up with solutions that will protect the innocence of children and allow them to grow up free from all sexualization and loss of true self.\u00a0 When our children grow up and are sovereign adults, then they can choose a partner from their own mature and self-stable point of view experiencing mature sexuality without codependency and self-loss.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I love children.\u00a0 I have grandchildren in public schools.\u00a0 I am so appreciative of the conservative teachers and staff who strive to keep the children innocent and NOT sexualized by any gender or \u201cstyle\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you to everyone who protects the beautiful purity children are born with.\u00a0 Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who are doing all you can to protect our families.\u00a0 God Bless the Pure in Heart.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Sincerely,<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\">Nonia Larsen<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cba9f93 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cba9f93\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a272afd\" data-id=\"a272afd\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-015868c\" data-id=\"015868c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5efb75 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"f5efb75\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ae5d2f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2ae5d2f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Contribute!<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>You too can let your voice be heard on this website.<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Simply go to our contact form linked at the top of each page and let us know your thoughts.<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Our local newspapers aren&#8217;t always printing all sides of the issues.\u00a0 Let us help you by giving you what&#8217;s missing.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2ea2aae\" data-id=\"2ea2aae\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On School Levies Education is important!
