What Your Vote for Issue 3 on August 2nd will mean for Cleveland: Funds generated by Issue 3 will do 3 specific things: prepare our kids for jobs by bringing 100 teachers, as well as new textbooks and technology, to children’s classrooms; improve safety in our schools and neighborhoods by reopening alternative schools for disruptive students and bringing back school security guards; and supporting sports and after-school activities that keep kids in school, out of trouble, and achieving. We all want Cleveland to have a stronger economy and be a safer city. Issue 3 will help us accomplish both. Smaller classroom sizes and better educational tools will help our kids become competitive adults in the workplace. And reopening some of the alternative schools our district had to close will remove disruptive children from our classrooms – without putting them on our street corners. Please vote for Issue 3 on August 2nd. The Right Thing. For all of us.

On August 2nd Clevelanders will make a critical decision about our future. Cleveland schools have only passed one operating levy since 1983. Issue 3, an 8 mill levy that will cost the owner of a $75,000 home only 50 cents a day, will generate over $45 million a year for our schools. Lack of funds has forced our schools to lay off over 1,400 teachers and has reduced school safety dramatically. The Plain Dealer’s July 17 story Progress in Peril click here sums up exactly why Cleveland needs Issue 3. The fact is that Cleveland’s schools have improved dramatically despite scarce funds – but now they need resources to continue the academic progress that’s been made. Since 1998, the District’s graduation rate has climbed from 28 percent to 50.2 percent in 2005. And of this year’s Cleveland public school graduates, a whopping 74% will attend college. It’s time to make children our highest priority, improve public safety, and make Cleveland a better place for all of us. On August 2nd, please vote for Issue 3.

WCLVnotes One of Cleveland's most important musical events - the Cleveland International Piano Competition - gets under way today at the Bolton Theatre of the Cleveland Playhouse. And WCLV 104.9 will broadcast every bloody note. 104.9's wall-to-wall coverage begins today at 1:30PM. Bill O'Connell and Mark Satola host. The Competition winds up on Fri 8/5 and Sat 8/6 with the final Concerto Rounds featuring Jahja Ling and The Cleveland Orchestra at Severance Hall. WCLV has an embarrassment of piano riches, because on Saturday, we will broadcast the first section of the evening's CIPC Second Round at 7PM, then at 8PM switch live to Oberlin's Warner Theatre for the Oberlin International Piano Competition for high school students. The remainder of Saturday evening's Second Round from CIPC will be taped and played back Sunday morning at 9AM. This will cause some major disruptions in our regular Sunday programming. For details on all of WCLV's programming go on-line at www.WCLV.com. WCLV is a Cool Cleveland partner.
