They do that, because they feel like they have to praise a kid for something and that there's no place for constructive criticism.

Probably most of them. Either NW or Birdville had a real fancy new tennis center in the doomed Bond package.
these bond packages end up being a wish list, rather than a needs list. Many of these districts have gone from asking for functional school facilities to "show pieces". And rather than ask for things incrementally as needed, they try to do the bulk bond and then sell the thing not on merits but on emotion.

I guess that's progress, but what I'd really like people to do is think about the math. That's over $3,300 plus interest for every man, woman, and child in the district. Is that really worth it just to make some contractors extremely rich making minor improvements?
Deez,
What is wrong with you? Those poor "public servants" may not be able to make it without that kickback $$$ you're taking away from them.

McKinney honors 12-year-old who saved sibling's life hours after learning how in a class
Auri and her sister Suri were preparing to walk their dogs when the 8-year-old started choking.
www.cbsnews.com
The 8-year-old had a piece of candy stuck in her throat, unable to breathe.
Auri applied the Heimlich maneuver on Suri and possibly saved her sister's life.
It's a skill she had learned only hours earlier in a babysitting training class sponsored by the McKinney Fire Department with help from Baylor Scott & White nurses.
(If the timing seems too good to be coincidental, it may not be just coincidental. The materialists only see part of the picture.)
Great job to the kid who paid attention in class and saved her sister from choking.
