No school again in Newton

I grew up in Newton during the 80s and watched prop 2.5 but the school system. A wealthy community whose elementary schools had 30-33 kids per class, bathrooms without working stall doors and anemic arts programs.

My parents are now elderly and retired in their 80s - but they voted for the prop rollback, The people building McMansions in lower falls or buying $7 TikTok famous croissants said nope and drove home in their Tesla SUVs

I think the mayor sort of sucks but the people elected her and the people of Newton think school is overpriced day care when it comes to raising taxes, say the teachers are mediocre and send their kids to Kumon or Russian Math because they would rather pay $1500 a year to a private company then see their taxes raised for 1 year to hire better teachers, have better facilities and let everyone, not just their own kids benefit.

Newton May act liberal but a lot of it is Florida with foliage.

I admittedly dont know the polling on how that vote went.

But historically elderly, fixed income, homeowners with no vested interest in the purpose for an override overwhelming come out against it.
Totally understandable.

So all this talk about the wealthy not voting for the override or the Newton voters in general not supporting their schools/ teachers might me way off the mark.

Love to hear from someone that can comment on the vote demographic, etc.
