Technology did not fail us in Y2K. Let’s not fail our kids by denying
them the technology support they deserve in the year 2000. The way
Riverview School District, and the whole Snoqualmie Valley, will be
viewed in the future hinges on our commitment to the technology levy now.
An investment in technology insures that our future generation is
not left in the past. After all, computers are not just an extracurricular
activity in schools. They are essential to current education and future career
opportunities.
Computers link kids in the Valley to resources around the world.
Technology is an equalizer, making it possible for students from all walks of
life to strive for any career path they choose. More importantly, it gives
rural kids the competitive edge they need to get ahead in today’s
technological age.
How well educated and employed will our future Valley residents
become? With the technology levy in question, the answer is up to us.
