Measure 30
A local measure to increase taxes failed. One of the benefits is that the school year will probably be shortened. A coworker at my old job has a passel of kids. The school year ended a month early and her children promptly began harassing her. If more parents considered the extra time they will have to spend dealing with their kids they would probably change their votes.
This will cost just as much in the long run anyway. Extending summer vacation for teenage boys is always a bad idea. By August, at the very latest, there will be hordes of the buggers playing with gasoline and matches, getting into fights, showing off, and a whole host of things that will land them into emergency rooms or meetings their local police officer. If you start two teenage boys off in mid May with teenage boy A daring teenage boy B to do X and then teenage boy B daring teenage boy A to do X+1, by late June you're already up to X+100. From experience I can tell you that extending summer vacation for teenage boys is an invitation for them to blow their fingers off, wreck their father's car, break their legs falling off of roofs, and find pants that sag so low they could be mistaken for socks.
One last thing, Hi AulaPay
