Spartan Nation,
First and foremost, I want to thank the Boardman community for its support and for believing in our students and our schools. We recognize that this support comes with a great deal of trust and responsibility, and we do not take that for granted.
At the same time, yesterday’s results do not eliminate the financial challenges facing Boardman Local Schools. We still have difficult work ahead of us, and we will continue to make responsible decisions with the resources our community has provided.
We must also continue advocating at the state level for meaningful school funding reform. Our communities deserve a fair, predictable funding system that allows us to provide the educational opportunities our students deserve without placing an ever-increasing burden on local taxpayers.
We are grateful for your support. Today, we get back to work for our students and our community.
Go Spartans!
Superintendent Neifer
