I also encourage you to pledge that the money raised will go to the renovation and renewal of <br />Lee County High School. Please tie these two items together firmly so that voters will know that when <br />they vote for the tax increase in May that they are voting to update and modernize the high school. <br />As a citizen of Sanford, I am very concerned that all of the newspaper coverage about the delay <br />in renovations has already gone on too long. Every story and letter about the deteriorating school that <br />is published makes our community look bad, and rightly so. We must get that school fixed up with all <br />deliberate speed so that our community can continue to move forward. The campuses of all of our <br />schools impact the dropout rate of our students and prepare our children to become successful adults. <br />We improve the future of the county when we help students succeed. <br />Thank you for supporting the students of Lee County and for protecting our future by voting to <br />make this tax money go to the renovations at Lee County High School. <br />Sincerely, <br />9 V <br />6~~ Jason Davenport <br />FEB 18 <br />1~ <br />
