Parcel Tax Supporters Get Campaign Rolling

From the San Leandro Sports Foundation:

Good things are happening in San Leandro.

That's why The San Leandro Sports Foundation supports Measure L.

Yes on Measure L will:

1. Protect core academic Math, Science and Reading programs
2. Increase student safety
3. Keep our libraries open
4. Prevent class size from increasing
5. Preserve Art, Music, P.E., and Athletics for our students

Every dime from Measure L is required to stay in San Leandro to improve education in our schools. Measure L cannot be used for administrator salaries. And seniors can request an exemption.
