A Winning Community Patti, Amy, and Sharon hang up a Kids 'R Us poster to urge support for the millage. M a g e On September 16, 1985, voters in the L’Anse Area School District took to the polls for the third time to decide the fate of our school system. Our district needed voter approval of 15.5 mills (13.5 renewal and 2 additional). The voters had rejected the millage request two times during the summer (mid- June and late July). In August a group fo concerned community members and students formed the Kids ’R Us Committee, which diligently worked for passage of the millage. The committee made buttons and posters, telephoned all registered voters and urged them to go to the polls, and registered absentee voters. They had poll watchers at all the precincts and provided transportation to and from the polls. Dut to the hard work of these dedicated people and a far-sighted community, the millage request was approved! The Kids ’R Us Committee was disbanded after forming the L’Anse P.T.O. The P.T.O. was formed to open an avenue of communication for parents, teach- ers, and administrators. We, the students of L’Anse High School, would like to thank the Kids ’R Us Committee (chairmen were Kris Kahler, Carol Tembreull, Margo Jentoft, Lois Kemppainen, Ted Hartman, and Amy Hanshaw); Kathy Fiester (from the Michigan Department of Education); and Karen Anderson (L’Anse Area Schools Business Manager) for all the work they did to get support for the millage request. We would especially like to thank all of you who voted to support our education and thus, our futures! Thanks!
