Pickerington Area Taxpayers Alliance

I see we have slipped 2 points and we are now an 'effective' school system vs an 'excellent' one. Dispatch Article dated 20 Aug 2003.

So much for the rating everyone used to hang their hat on.

Maybe we can have Lou and Wes update Lou's campaign literature, ie. ''Route 33 - Pickerington's pathway to the prosperity'' to state how we went from an excellent school to an effective one under his brief tenure.

Whitehall here we come

No commercial - except Lou's and Council's heralded TIF's for strip malls. Houses by the boatload. Lowest per student property tax valueation. We get what we continue to close our eyes to and allow them to do this to us!

Website to view scores

Scores for the different school districts in Ohio can be viewed on this website:

Will the drop in scores slow down the housing market in the area?
