Thank you Independence High School

I recently received a letter from the faculty at Independence High School. I would like to share it with you since Democrats would like you to believe that teachers are not happy with the Republican Party and what it has done in the legislature. Here it goes:

Dear Steve Clark,

Independence High School teaching staff would like to thank you. As this new school year began and our new pay scale took effect, we did not want to pass the opportunity to mention our gratitude. We appreciate the efforts you have made over the past couple of years to make salaries in Utah competitive with surrounding states.

Additionally, with the change in the economy, it is particularly nice to live in the most fiscally responsible state in the nation. Even so, we know that you had to meet to re-balance the budget. Thank you for holding education harmless. It can be difficult to find the places to cut the budget and to leave education alone means a lot to the educators, students and parents of our school.

Sincerely,

Independence High School

All faculty signed the bottom of the letter.

THANKS INDEPENDENCE FOR YOUR GRATITUDE - remember it was the Republicans that got you the raise, kept Utah the most fiscally responsble state in the nation and held education harmless during re-balancing.
