I would be happy to give Las Lomitas a vote of confidence for a Parcel Tax Increase- when Eric Hartwig and his adminstration give up 20% of their salaries. When the superintenedent is driving a porsche, you know he is raking the district for a large salary.. No Vote from this LL Parent..

Porsche, vineyard in woodside.....check me out babes (minus atherton ones).

2/3 votes needed, and they want to reduce to 50% to get these taxes through. Sounds like they are laying the ground work for "let's fix it with more dumb tax dollars".

Just waht we need, more tax dollars towards porsches and babes. But than again that's what gov and schools is all about. It's not about the kiddos. IT's about ADULT issues, just read the minutes of the board meetings.

This is a rich school district, "struggling to make ends meet" you should go to Oakland and E. Palo Alto, if you want to say you're "struggling to make ends meet". This is a democratic state, spreading the wealth to even the schools out is the future for public schools. Top api scores in the worst state is nothing to brag about.

Cool, more taxes. Schools now a days need lots of funds for "extra curricular activities" of the administrators teachers and ALL.
