Dear CrickeeRaven,

Thank you for being so knowledgeable and helpful. You know so much that I almost think you are (or recently were) a School Committee (SC) member. I decided to take you up on your offer and learn on-line just what the clear picture of the SC budget was. Thanks so much.

However...

I am still a little confused. Do you want me to analyze one of the 6 budgets from 2017, or one of the 8 budgets from 2018. Should I be reading the APPROVED ORIGINAL or the REVISED ORIGINAL, or the ADOPTED, or the REVISED ADOPTED, or the ADOPTED RECOMMENDED, or the TENATIVE AGREEMENT, or the ADOPTED REVISED BUDGET? Those headings are all listed at the address you gave me for the year 2018 and we are only 3 weeks in!!!

I checked with a couple of City Council people and they say that every time the SC gives them a snapshot of your books it somehow is very different from the previous one. Maybe they are misunderstanding too.

Please help me CrickeeRaven. You're so smart and unbiased and fair to the 80,000 taxpayers that are paying the tab.

Thank you again on behalf of us all.

Happy Valentines CriskeeRaven.

Happy Valentines everyone.
