Thank-you for that eloquent letter, Mr. Cohen. In addition to large class sizes and a short school year, Oregon schools lack adequate support staff such as counselors, nurses, school psychologists, art, music, P.E., librarians, etc.  In a rural area like down here in Coos Bay, we are also hindered in the amount of electives we can offer. Our schools are in great need of repair and we need to build new ones. We need 97 to pass.
