Today's federal funding = federal mandates, which = 21 school days of testing per year,....time spent the kids are not receiving an education. Want more of that for your kids?
Alton has decreed that they are operating on the basis of evaluating your property based on when it was at it's highest, vice it's advertised "Present Value"(which is today's value, not yesterday or tomorrow, which requires the tax folks to stay current on values), then added a surtax for water front property. Guess it's time to roll back the taxes on a state wide basis (like Prop 13), and force the local admin types to stay within a budget (like the rest of us). If you want your kids educated better then what is locally avaluable you have a couple of clear choices - move somewhere else, or work with the school.
