I bet it is closer to 50% or less of Whittier’s population come from Garden City. according to the district boundaries. https://goo.gl/kjxYyM

Boise never had control of the schools. The Independent School District of Boise City was formed during territory days in 1865.

Let Garden City create its own school district and build their own schools.

It’s funny how Boise wants to take back control of the roads from ACHD but you never here Boise city leaders talking about taking control of schools from Boise School District.

Logging and school funding: I’m of the understanding the federal forest fire management business is destroying more timber than the loggers used to cut back in the day… by a large margin. Do you have any incites on this comparison, and how the fire fighting business can be taxed for schools? As it is now, all they do for a small town is anomalously get your young women knocked up, and increase business at local shops and eateries.

Perhaps Clinton will send you a busload of federally funded refugees each week.

90% of the land in Boise County is own by some form of Government… which means no taxes coming in. No jobs in Boise county so most folks work in Boise, or are retired or are on welfare.

Back in the good old days when we had logging…. BCC, Guy Harris Lumber and Producers Lumber Company bought timber sales and paid big $$ for timber …. we got money from the feds for our schools when timber was logged. 10 to 20 million board ft. a year for the Idaho City district. Boise, Horsebend and Mt. Home district would put the amount up to about 70 to 80 million BF per year. And then the State would put up timber sales that would go in the State Endowment fund for schools. We built a nice Jr. and Sr. high school to keep from busing kids to Boise. And lets not forget the Idaho City is the county seat for Boise county. We felt schools are important.

Well logging is gone…Many reason why but when it was gone so was our funding for schools. Our great government put stop gap bills to help but its days are numbered…http://www.nwcn.com/news/education/millions-in-rural-idaho-school-funding-in-jeopardy/323213623

Some folks talk about making a deal with the Boise school to bus our kids down to Boise… (Believe it or not that what we used to do for Jr. and Sr. high school. Teachers are leaving for better jobs and benefits that we sure can not offer. But every one agrees that a bond will not pass.

So the next time you think you have problem…. Think of your neighbor less than 40 miles away.

Meanwhile the product of our schools is similar to the pink-slime packing houses produce after butchering perfectly healthy high-grade animals. These public schools are literally making troubled mush from perfectly healthy normal minds and souls.

BTW: They are building new schools in the middle of huge lots of land so they can double as interment centers. Hillary is a Globalist Narcissist. Trump is just a Narcissist. Better learn about globalism, it’s gonna take all you have and make your job suck too. Ask a European if I’m correct.

Similarly, a 5 child household is putting 5X burden on the schools, which I believe is his point. Not 1 X. Now, if he means that household is only contributing 1 X property tax, then he’s correct.
