It is time to take charge
Let’s not forget about the gathering tomorrow evening at the First Baptist Church at 101 college. On the corner of Wheeling and College. This will be a good time to ask prospective School Board candidates, what would you like to accomplish as a school board member? What would you do with South? What is your position on the current Insurance issue? What changes to the curriculum would you like to see, etc? The gathering will be at 7:00 and is open to anyone that is concerned about the school board and school system. No one is going to say yes I have a personal vendetta to settle, instead we can ask candidates to promise to always act with the best interests of the district, students and tax payers and not to let personal feelings over take their decision making process.
There is no charge for this event. This is to ask question and meet some of the potential candidates. We intend to have some light snacks; cookies etc. so if you need to bring children feel free to do so. Please ask friends and neighbors to come along with you. This could be the beginning of much needed change in our school system and a school board that for a few of them has become known as "Snakes-on-a-Stage"
I truly apologize for scheduling it on Ash Wednesday, but it was the only day available and I am in hopes that scheduling it after 7:00 will help with conflicts. Remember it starts at 7 but feel free to come at any time you are available we should be at the church until around 9 or after so feel free to come when you can.
The district may actually be able to move forward if the right people are elected. Some obviously important attributes will be things such as honesty, integrity, knowledge and respect which are obviously nonexistent with the 3 Musketeers as well as some of the others. We can only hope that the candidates will be able to refrain from laughing at people, giving dirty looks, lying, scheming and being rude! Many will vote for those that they feel won’t embarrass the district any further. This standard may seem a bit low but let’s look at what we have……we’ll consider it a bonus if we have candidates that are informed, caring and honest and display a strong sense of character. It’s time for a change!!!
