SLAVIN AND LYNOTT

Here's our inaugural post:

VOTE FOR SLAVIN AND LYNOTT!

Here's Why:

No other candidate offers any real solution. Here's what they've done as community leaders already:

  • Led Massapequa in the drive for the FIELD OF DREAMS
  • They were the founders of the Massapequa Athletic and Civic Conference
  • Worked with the town on the 'turfing' of Burns Park
  • Demanded for us what we deserve on the SEAFund bond...and got it, including improvements to our school facilities that the present school board would not support!
  • As residents, have shown a consistent desire to improve Massapequa in ways that benefit the entire community.
Their vision, which is being borrowed and professed throughout Long Island now, is to demand our FAIR SHARE in Albany. Don't let anyone else fool you. NO OTHER CANDIDATE CAN DO THIS!

As the election approaches, we will be inundated with the same old campaigns:

  • LOWER TEACHERS SALARIES - Yes, this is the way to retain quality educators.
  • CUT ADMINISTRATORS - We have the largest school district in Nassau County, it grows larger every year as does our budget. How can we maintain educational standards and do this?
  • FIRE ADMINISTRATIVE PERSONNEL AND REPLACE THEM WITH STUDENTS (For no pay) - This may be the most ridiculous idea I've ever heard! "Hey kid...skip calculus this term and organize this outdated file system.
  • CHARGE FEES FOR EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES - That's a good one...charge the overtaxed more money so their kids can learn teamwork and physical fitness values.
  • FORCE TEACHERS TO VOLUNTEER FOR ATHLETICS AND ACTIVITIES - You think it's hard to get a decent coach now? The first person who proposes this had better demonstrate proof where they worked for free themselves.

I'll leave it at that for now. What do you think?
