Dear Rockwood Stakeholders:
The community of the Rockwood School District is in desperate need of strong, decisive leadership on its Board of Education.

In 2007, the Rockwood School Board began discussing unsustainable budget shortfalls for 2013 and beyond. Here it is the end of 2012 and there is no real vision or direction for the future; except more taxes.

The claim (from Rockwood administrators and board of education directors) to have already cut a total of $22 million over five years is questionable.
If you are a strong, decisive leader, or know someone who is, applications for a position on the Rockwood School Board are being accepted beginning Dec. 11 through Jan. 15.
Two board director positions on the Rockwood School Board will be decided on the April 2 ballot.

If you have any questions, or would like more information on the Rockwood School Board or Rockwood Stakeholders for Real Solutions, contact RS for RS spokesperson Eileen Tyrrell at 636-222-8305.
Sincerely,
Rockwood Stakeholders for Real Solutions
Keeping the focus on fiscal responsibility, students and teachers
