Strong schools support businesses and jobs

I’m writing in support of the school bond, and many supporters have written, highlighting the financial and practical reasons why this bond makes sense for Newton. I’m writing from the perspective of a president of a growing manufacturing/distribution company located in Newton. For our community to grow, attract new business and assure continued growth for the companies that call Newton home, a strong, modern and progressive school system is essential. This is an opportunity to look forward with pride and build the future our families, children and grandchildren deserve. Please join me in supporting this bond, by voting yes on Sept. 13, it’s our opportunity to make a very positive change for our community.
