School parking
[Subheading]
Tuesday, August 31, 2010

Dear Editor,

I had the opportunity to take my daughter to school today after a dr. appointment.  I found it quite amusing that ½ of the student parking lot sits empty.  Could it be that the district tried to be too greedy and take from too many students by raising the price to park from $25.00 to $100.00 in a school year.  Seems to me that they are no better off than where they were before.  I agree with an increase, but what they did was what I would consider to be price gouging.  I’d venture to say that if they don’t drop the price next year, the same thing is going to happen.  I know my child won’t drive to school if it stays at that price.


Thanks,
