funding. So many children (and parents!) are counting on this. I will be attending the budget <br /> meeting on the May 29th and I do hope to hear positive news! <br /> Thank you so much for your time and consideration, <br /> Brandy Pickrell <br /> 203 Hanford Rd. <br /> Chapel Hill, NC <br /> 27516 <br /> From: Sherri Williams <br /> Phone Number: 919-537-8252 <br /> Message: <br /> Dear Orange County Commissioners: <br /> As a parent of two children in the Chapel Hill Carrboro School System I humbly request that you <br /> consider full funding of the CHCCS budget for the upcoming school year. Currently, the school <br /> system needs $3.9 million but only $1.2 million is being requested. I can't bear to imagine the <br /> long-term impact this type of budget shortfall will have on such an amazing school system. <br /> We relocated to Chapel Hill, NC from the depths of south Georgia and I can personally testify <br /> that this school system has made such an incredible impact on my two children. Their thirst for <br /> knowledge has blossomed. They both have thrived in all areas of basic academics as well as <br /> cultural arts (switching from learning Spanish to learning French, for example). <br /> In addition, with the influence of the higher-than-normal Asian populations in the area and in the <br /> public school system it is EVIDENT that these children (whether they are in the Mandarin Dual <br /> Language program OR traditional classroom) far surpass their peers in academics. There is no <br /> way our children can compete with this level of academic competition in the long run without the <br /> support of public figures like you. <br /> Please do not allow our educational system to suffer by not supporting full funding of the <br /> 2014/2015 School Budget. I know this type of decision carries a heavy weight for you but I urge <br /> you to support the full budget and show the community your commitment to investing in the <br /> children of this area and as a result investing in the future of this nation. <br /> Thank you for your time and for your consideration. Sherri Williams <br /> Dear Commissioners, <br /> I am urging you to do anything you can to fully fund the CHCC schools in the coming years even <br /> if this requires a tax increase, I would be willing to do my part. My son starts Kindergarten in <br /> September and is looking forward to another 13 years here in the public school system so I am <br /> very invested in getting funding for these schools. <br /> Sincerely <br /> Anne W. Beaven <br /> 109 Braswell Rd. <br /> Chapel Hill <br /> From: Michael Kappelman <br /> Message: <br /> I live at 212 Turtleback Crossing Drive, Chapel Hill, NC, 27516. My children go to Morris Grove <br /> Elementary. I am writing to urge the board to fund the FULL budget request of CHCCS. The <br /> education of our children is our highest priority. I sincerely ask that the board think creatively <br />
