We have excellent schools, which is why many of us chose to move to the Cedarcrest area. Becoming an incorporated city is crucial for sustaining these schools in our community. We are actively involved in ensuring the safety of our community. If the neighborhoods that make up Cedarcrest are allowed to deteriorate or become overdeveloped, our children's education will suffer. This could lead to inadequate textbooks, learning materials, and overcrowded classrooms. The quality of our schools is directly influenced by the neighborhoods that support them. Thriving neighborhoods contribute to higher-quality schools and well-prepared students for academic success.
