We understand, or at least we try, what happens to you if the levy passes. We understand the taxes raise, we understand the cost of living in this town will increase, we understand, that effects us too. From all those people with the "Vote No!" signs, I feel as if the only adults who understand what will happen to us if the levy fails are parents and teachers. No more sports, no more arts, no more janitorial staff, no more library because our district can't afford to pay all the school librarians. We lose passions, chances that some of us can't get anywhere else. I understand that you might not be able to pay more in the taxes than you already have to, but do you understand that by voting no, we lose scholarships, the colleges that will accept us will decrease, a lot of us will lose something we really care about. Our lucky friends will go to a new school, but some of us can't do that. We were the top school system in central Ohio, and without this, with the best students leaving, we're going to quickly lose that title. We try to understand what will happen to you, but did anyone think of what would happen to us?
