Beware of political opportunists who say there is a no-cost alternative, because there is not. The only alternative to building more rooms and prudent financing of it by a bond issue is substantial redistricting, large-scale reshuffling of students, oversize classes, cutting teachers in the face of rising enrollments, cutting courses, cutting education.

Don't punish Westfield's children for the expenses forced on us by the mandates of Trenton, for the unfair, archaic property-tax system we are forced to use to finance our schools, and for the increases in school costs faced by every system in the state.

Vote ... On December 13

Reason Number 1: The bond issue is a twenty million dollar, twenty year solution to a temporary population problem. In May of 1994, Sarah Weissman, a demographer hired by the Board, cautioned: "Westfield's school facilities problem for the next decade will be how to house a temporary bulge passing through the schools without creating more space than will be required in the first decade of the next century."

Reason Number 2: According to the BOE's best case projections, the proposed renovations and additions will not be completed until 1997/8. By this time the "baby boom bubble" will have moved on to higher grades. If the plan to increase the facilities is the best option available, it should have been started three years ago.

Reason Number 3: The bond issue only deals with brick and mortar. It does not deal with the accompanying expenses of staffing, administration, supplies, etc. Reason Number 3: The bond issue only deals with brick and mortar. It does not deal with the accompanying expenses of staffing, administration, supplies, etc.

Reason Number 4: As of November 15th, the BOE has a surplus of $2,200,000, almost 5% of the budget. This amount would cover the costs of the capital improvements in the proposal ($1.6 million) and leave $600,000.

Reason Number 5: The issue at hand is not the improvement of the facilities. It is the credibility of the spending already taking place. See the charts below for reference.

vr.!i I Reason Number 6: The issue at hand is not one of depriving children ofihe resources necessary to have a quality education. Westfield presently spends 61% more per student than the national average, the highest per student expense in the state. This does not include the considerable PTO and PTA fundraising support efforts that pay for "extras" like ice hockey, CD-Roms, playground equipment, lunch tables, etc. There can be no question about Westfield's commitment to education.

Reason Number 7: Since 1985 the property tax portion of the school budget has increased from $19 million to $41.2 million, an increase of 110%. During the same period the total student population has decreased from 5,036 to 4,634.

Reason Number 8: Many people try to link the educational system to property values. If the relationship between home equity and the educational system are so strong, New York City's school system would be priceless, wouldn't it?

Summary: There are many emotional sides and responses to this issue. Vote with your head, not with your heart. Whatever you do, VOTE. This is our community and it is our job, pro or con, to give the Board of Education our mandate.
