You should follow your own advice.

Your ''asssalt'' on public schools and saying that they offer a lesser education than parochial schools is totally unfounded. Why don't you respond when someone offers a legitimate question back to you.

You are pure BS

Parochial Schools

I seem to remember some time back when a former Pastor at St. Joan of Arc was prosicuted as a sexual preditor? He was not here at the time. If this is true, how many children did he have contact with? I also know that a teacher at the school I attended ( Catholic High School and Grade School ) was prosicuted as a sexual preditor.

This has nothing to do with the church as it is today. Just an example that you can't stand here and say that Parochial Schools are better than Public Schools based on some article that is published in a rag.

Your agenda seems to be against the upcoming tax levy. I for one will stand for the education my kids are getting in our school system here. Paying the extra money for the quality we have insures my property value will not decline.

WOW ! are you sure you even went to school ? preditor and prosicuted ? Sounds like YOU attended a ''public'' school. Those weren't typos, either.

You mention background checks? You think Olentangy doesn't do them? I was hired as an AIDE and had FBI/BCI fingerprints and an extensive background check done. So at least if you are going to bash, get your facts straight.
If you choose to send your children to private school, good for you, but when a community has such a fine school system, it is just that, a personal choice, it does not make you superior. The Dispatch article lumped all public schools together and there is a huge difference between a school system like Olentangy and Columbus Public Schools.
