Since I got elected in Nov 2013 (write in for a vacant seat ... no one more surprised than ME to learn ... I won with 1 !) ... I've come to believe this is probably a more important job than president
He gets the citizenry ... I MAKE 'em
The fear of the ride of shame out of town on a rail should always remain a part of citizens checks and balances in any part of government :>}
Local school boards are very important. They should be the ones setting school standards and overseeing them. The choice of school system Superintendent is also important. Personally unless no one in the local district is qualified or found suitable I believe in hiring from within the system first and hiring one from out of state as a last resort. School System Supers used to be a respected and proven principal whom the community knew could do the job and the principal knew the schools needs.
