Menomonee Falls will have a referendum to raise more money for schools. When it fails, programs will be lost. Let's take a look at some of those programs:
Tech Ed - When you get that high-power job because of your elite high school diploma, you won't need to know any tech ed stuff, anyhow. You can just hire someone else to fix your car.
World Languages - The only language you need to know is English, especially if you plan on making it big in Menomonee Falls, WI.
Business - These classes are just a mix of math and English, anyhow. Study hard in math, learn to write, and you can take business classes in college, if you go there.
Art - Slap some paint on an old piece of metal and call it a masterpiece.
