OPINION — I'm writing in response to Allen Skillicorn's letter posted online on Aug. 7.
In recent years, FHUSD has responded strongly to dropping enrollment which has impacted almost all school districts across Arizona and many nationwide. The district has done this in a financially responsible manner while protecting and preserving the quality of education and opportunities provided to our students.
This includes consolidation of buildings, sale of vacant property and budget cuts totaling over $3 million in the last three fiscal years. FHUSD continues to explore ways to save money while fulfilling our responsibility to the community.
