Dr. Talk ~ The state standards are actually some of the highest in the country. You can also choose which school to send your child to. It's called school choice, it's a law.

As a preschool teacher, I must say that I'm happy to have the 4K. Yes, it will cost money as anything we do costs money. And to those who are yelling and having fits, just remember the old saying that it takes a village to raise a child. Just because you don't have any children, and I don't either, doesn't mean you shouldn't help. What is wrong with this world is that everyone has a me me me attitude until they need help. The same people you're yelling about helping (the kids) are the same people that may one day grow up to help you!
As for early childhood programs, they are not glorified babysitters. Children learn valuable problem solving and social skills among other things at these programs. "Play time" is really learning time for young children. People need to remember that teachers only have students some 19% of the year. The rest of the education of the child is up to parents and families. Imagine that, people taking responsibility for the education of their children at home! If parents and families helped...that's a new story. Yeah for 4K!

On Bike trail tunnel closer to reality

I use the trail in this area almost daily in the summer. While the tunnel would be a nice addition... what ever happened to the good old fashioned "Look both ways before you cross the street"?
