Didn’t they know it’s for the children?
I thought it was quite interesting to read this story about how the Holland School Board actually cut $1 million from their budget. Their reason? Simple. Welk said the goal to cut 5 percent from the budget stemmed from a shrinking school population that had shrunk from 1,450 to 1,050 over recent years — with…
More leisure time?
I saw this story on Craig’s site, and it intrigued me. We’re all constantly hearing about how Americans work more and give up vacation time. So when someone comes out with a study that seems to indicate the opposite, it warrants some attention. So I decided to read the study, all sixty-some pages of it…
