Debate over Rio Rancho school district claims and slander risk
A letter to the Concerned Citizens Against the New School District questions unverified accusations against the Rio Rancho School District Feasibility Study Commission and Dr Richard Tonigan and Associates. It challenges claims taxes would double, special education would be outsourced, or taxes would stay flat with APS. The writer hints at potential libel implications for cited comments by Mr. Cliff Sievert.
