There is no need for this project. Grass is safer and more environmentally friendly.

It's unnecesary, less safe and the funds required may be spent on education and school buildings infrastructure.

As others have said there are numerous reasons to vote no, from health concerns, longevity to player complaints(players don't like astroturf unless somebody is paying them to say so).
Test scores are below average and the push is for astroturf for a high school football team. Makes sense.

A board full of local business owners and an individual who isn’t even allowed to coach football. Turf raises major red flags. Health/injury concerns, environmental concerns. Not to mention, further tax burden on the taxpayers and we don’t even have enough players to field a team without the help of a neighboring town.

There are much bigger issues that need to be dealt with in the district. We don’t have enough players to field a team, no player from our town is ever going pro. NY state is set to ban turf (following the lead of California). Why would we invest in something that will need to be ripped out when banned? So one business can benefit from putting it in and then taking it out?? No thanks. The school board is a bunch of puppets who don’t really care about our local children’s education or well being.
