School Reviews

I am so glad that the Corry Journal finds the superindent of Clymer, Scott Smith so admirable. He's not taking a pay raise this year due to budget cuts. I would say he should feel ashamed to do so. Why doesn't he take a pay CUT so the art and Spanish programs could be brought back? This country is getting further and further behind, and people in most other countries know a foreign language. WAKE UP CLYMER. These are your tax dollars at work!!!!!!!
