The district should be (maybe even required?) to be giving the tools needed to learn to their students.</div><div dir="auto">If they are not getting full funding from the State or Feds than helping fill the gap is something we can consider.</div><div dir="auto">Also what was the response from MUSE regarding helping to pay for this?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div id="composer_signature" dir="auto"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">Ray Alarcon<br dir="auto"><font face="sans-serif" dir="auto">Alarcon</font> Ins Agency<br dir="auto">PO Box 2539<br dir="auto">Mendocino, CA 95460<br dir="auto">707-937-5050<br dir="auto">CA Lic#0B68172</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div><br></div></body></html>
