THe big fiasco in Meck County. I am now thinking about moving to Union County.......

Well Love Mountains your reply to my reply answers the question of "fiasco" . You answered my questions by agreeing with what I read so dont be so hard on me. Voters are voting these issues down because they dont trust the board. It might happen again this fall. That is what I call a "fiasco". Meck County needs about 3 BILLION dollars in the next ten years jjustt for schools. But one party is ONLY asking for a little over $600 mill. the other party says that is too much and voters will not approve it. So their figure is about $450 Million. I am sorry, but what is the difference? a fiasco. $400 Million, $600 million. What is the difference I ask? Voters might not even approve $20K. As New2Charlotte agreed from his personal experience and from his personal opinion.

I am sure Union County has its issues and I am sure they can't build schools fast enough, but again it seems as the Meck County Gov't

But you miss my point - you implied Charlotte and/or it's schools are a fiasco - that is what I disagree with. The bond issue, and the school board - those are the fiascos. Just not fair to make it sound like all of Charlotte, and all of its schools and all of its government are fiascos because that is not true.

We are going to be renting in Ballantyne, we were zoned for Hawk Ridge we are going to the NEW Elon Park school, they are pulling kids from Hawk Ridge as well from what I was told this will take away from the overcrowding, next year they will also open Flat Branch elem this will eleveate more of the pressure from Hawk...I think opening 2 new Elems is not a fiasco but a good step in the right direction. You want fiasco look at NY my son who just finished 3rd grade with 24 kids would have went to a 4th grade that will have 35....now thats a fiasco!!JMO
