To the editor:

The RTR school District has a school bond vote for a new school on Feb. 12. There is early voting available 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday at the high school office. Terry and I voted early and we voted yes.

We have many reasons for voting yes; many things have changed since our schools were built and since we consolidated. Our main reason is we have two great-grandchildren who will be attending RTR until they graduate. We feel all children should have a safe and healthy environment to attend school in.

There will be an informational meeting at the high school at 7 p.m. Jan 24. We encourage everyone to attend. There will be experts on hand to answer any question you may have; you can get true and accurate information, rather than some of the rumors going around.

I will leave you with a thought: If you have paint with lead in it in your paint supply, would you paint your child’s room with the lead paint or will you buy the safer alternative paint?
