Baker will spend our money wisely


    We in Blaine County are blessed with a community that is truly supportive of our children and their education. To this end, we have been very generous with our educational dollars.
    Alas, our enormous spending on education has not been a guarantee of “world class” results or responsible leadership. We are mired in a huge lawsuit that could have been prevented if our district leadership and board had only followed Warren Buffett’s adage for Berkshire Hathaway: “We will only do with your money what we would do with our own.”
    Kathy Baker understands this and has the business background needed to ensure that the district will spend our money wisely—in the classroom—not in the courtroom or district office.
    Let’s help our children and our community get the best value for our education dollars. Our children deserve this. Vote for Kathy Baker.
