Posted on: Keeping children safe

Why not install lights at all school zones? I always slow down anyway when going through a school. Before this change of "when children are present" I didn't want to take my eyes off the road to read the times which varied from school to school and find out if it was a year round or nine month school. I also found it interesting that there were always cops giving tickets when the school speed limit was enforced but students were not present. I never saw cops present when children were being dropped off or picked up.

Posted on: Teacher pay cut might not sting recruitment

Teachers start out making $35,000 if they take the required classes. If they don't then they start at $31,000.

I have called the governor's office asking what his pay cut would be. The woman who answered the phone said she didn't know and she would call me back. She hasn't yet. I encourage all people to call and then post the answer(775-684-5670). I have also called Superintendent Ruffles and asked about the cuts to his $350,000 salary, district provided car, and $6000 yearly expense account. They haven't called me back yet either. His office number is 702 799-5307.
