Letter: Vote to help dreams come true

I am student at an elementary school. I want everyone to vote for the levy on Feb. 9. For those who don’t know what the levy is, it is to vote for giving money to our schools. This money can help with teachers, buying textbooks, after-school activities like choir and soccer, and making sure that the building is safe. I think it would help lots of schools and my school.

I personally care about this because I enjoy my teachers, lots of activities and having a nice school. I really want to be a Disney artist when I grow up. My school has art classes, which can help me pursue that dream. We are lucky for that because a lot of kids don’t have that.

Kids want to be well-educated about our world and how to take care of our Earth and the people on Earth. We can be fantastic grown-ups if we have well-taken-care-of schools. The levy will help my dream and other kids’ dreams come true.
