WHY IS DISTRICT 200 HIDING THEIR PLANS

I find it interesting that District 200 is now having Andy Johnson, ex-School Board President, spearhead the initiative on the new tax referendum for improvements on Jefferson.  YES, we all agree that MAJOR improvements need to be made at Jefferson!  Our School Board needs to learn how to work within our means.  Why are we hiding information on mysuburbanlife.com?  Mr. Johnson stated that, "Over the last 16 years I was on the Board we took care of all the elementary schools", yet there are STILL major issues at several of the elementary schools that need to be addressed.  I am confused, did we need to add the plans for a new administration building on to the original plans of Jefferson?  How about 1 million for new turf at the High Schools?  If the Chicago Bears can play on grass, why can't we?
