20 <br /> 1 Sincerely, <br /> 2 Virginia Purcell <br /> 3 <br /> 4 <br /> 5 From: Jessica Sherrieb <br /> 6 Phone Number: 9194380623 <br /> 7 Message: <br /> 8 I am writing to respectfully ask that the Commissioners fully fund the CHCCS schools. I am a <br /> 9 parent of two children in CHCCS schools and a rising Kindergartner. My family moved to Chapel <br /> 10 Hill in part for the excellent schools and we are in favor of increased taxes to pay for them. <br /> 11 Thank you for your time. <br /> 12 Sincerely, <br /> 13 Jessica Sherrieb <br /> 14 <br /> 15 <br /> 16 From: Marissa Elk <br /> 17 Phone Number: 919-904-4355 <br /> 18 Message: <br /> 19 Dear County Commissioners, <br /> 20 <br /> 21 I am writing to express my wholehearted support of the proposed budget, including a tax <br /> 22 increase as needed to fully fund the CHCCS budget. As the mother of 2 school-age and 1 <br /> 23 soon-to-be school age child, I can tell you that we moved here a little over a year ago based <br /> 24 largely on the strength of the school system. Despite having family in Raleigh, we chose to buy <br /> 25 a house in Chapel Hill so that our children could benefit from what we feel is a superior public <br /> 26 school education. Just as we try to shop at Chapel Hill businesses and attend local activities, <br /> 27 we are fully supportive of the school system and would happily pay even more in taxes than we <br /> 28 already do to maintain as high a level of quality as possible in the school system. <br /> 29 I ask you as strongly as possible to approve the budget as proposed. <br /> 30 <br /> 31 Regards, <br /> 32 Marissa Elk <br /> 33 <br /> 34 <br /> 35 From: Laura Morgan <br /> 36 Phone Number: 9196244946 <br /> 37 Message: <br /> 38 Dear County Commissioners, <br /> 39 i am writing as an advocate of our schools and our county. Please look carefully at this budget <br /> 40 and fully fund our schools. It appears it is time for a tax increase - but only to fund our schools. <br /> 41 There is nothing more important than our schools and children. <br /> 42 <br /> 43 Thank you for your consideration. <br /> 44 Laura Morgan <br /> 45 <br /> 46 <br /> 47 From: Emily Moseley <br /> 48 Phone Number: 919-932-8507 <br /> 49 Message: <br /> 50 Dear Commissioners: As you know, recent state budget cuts have put our schools in the <br /> 51 terrible position of being underfunded, even with just continuation budgets.
