TAKE A REALISTIC LOOK
at the Proposed Future Site of Our New Sullivan West School.
Look behind the scenes, behind the lies, behind the harrassment.
Don’ just take a side, ask yourself some honest questions and go out and demand answers.

There were 1879 votes at DVCS merger vote, yet the total for all 3 schools on the budget vote (2001) was ONLY 1412.  Why?  Perhaps there was more than one dead person who turned in a ballot at the merger vote.
 
NO TAX INCREASE?  1st year, up 19%; 2nd year, up 8%; this year, how much will the INCREASE be?
 
Taxes were supposed to be stabilized and equalized!  When?  (NOTE: Fremont has 100% assessment, so they pay more taxes even when everyone in the school district pays the same percentage rate.)
 
Why does Jeff school have more bomb scares than the other schools?  Before you write us, check the record.
 
Do you think the problem of weapons in school is being taken seriously and properly?
 
Why doesn’t the school board answer questions at board meetings?  Why do they give different answers to individuals?  Are they making us patsies for their lies?
 
No sports combined until new school built; [except when needed to make a team].
 
No students moved until new school built.  [ Does anyone still believe that no one knew up front that Narrowsburg seniors would have to go to Jeff next year? ].
 
Teacher and staff salaries the same for all 3 schools.  When will this happen?
 
SRP’s have been working without contract for 2 years.  Do not foresee contract in near future.
 
Johndrow said no student will ride bus for more than one hour.  Some kids will ride over an hour to new school.  Some are on for 45 min now!
 
Why were we told the new school wouldn’t cost more to run than the three we have?
 
Storm water Report stated land was alden silt loam, which is hydric and could fall under Federal Wetlands Jurisdiction.  School board stated this in newspaper.
 
School board stated that Mr. Zylstra didn’t offer part of land but wanted to sell whole farm.  Committee member got different answer; he would sell part.
 
School board said everyone would want to bid and we could get 30 bids easy; received only 11 bids.
 
School board changed meeting location 4 times since January ignoring the required 72 hour notice; found in handbook for school board members (2:28).
 
Why did school board have group from Beech Lake, PA post wetland signs?  Why not our DEC?
 
How were these wetlands logged through without fines?
 
Johndrow said all tanks were removed; yet we were able to obtain a photo of one taken on Mother’s Day 2001.  Who should we believe Johndrow or the picture?
 
Phase I engineer report told of contamination with pictures like on website and was known to all board members since May 2000.  Why wasn’t public told?  Why lie?
 
School board says property is safe, yet officials said debris on site could be Hazardous.  Who should we believe school board or officials?
 
Is there money behind the push to use this site?  Just ask yourself what could motivate someone to push to use this site when using this site could put children’s and adults’ health at risk?  In addition to this potential health risk to our neighbors, friends, and relatives, there is also the potential for costly clean up fines and fees that the district taxpayers will have to absorb.
 
Is the school board teaching our kids to lie?  Are they showing them to do anything for money or "glory", including putting the health of children and adults at risk?
 
Who is computer manipulating the new school site vote count on the Democrat’s website?  How many different people voted, how many the same?  The truth can be hidden there, so show up and speak up at the board meetings!
 
WHEN WILL OUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS, SED, and SUPERINTENDENTS, CARE ABOUT OUR CHILDREN?
