Hey
mr
daniels,
thanks
for
coming,
thank
you.
If
you're
appointed,
what
past
experiences
do,
you
believe
have
prepared
you
to
serve
as
a
school
board?
Member
and
please
be
specific,
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
I
started
out.
I
lived
in
new
jersey
and
I
spent
my
entire
life
in
public
schools
k
through
12.
G
My
brother
and
my
sister,
my
mom
and
dad
were
very
involved
with
school
board
and
and
of
course,
in
our
lives.
So
I
understand
how
how
growing
up
in
the
public
schools
is.
I
understand
the
challenges
that
there
that
there
are,
but
I've
loved
I
loved
everything
about
my
public
school
career
growing.
Up
where
I
did
it
was.
We
were
in
a
very
diverse
community,
so
we
had
friends
from
all
all
races
and
religions,
and
it
was
just
I
couldn't
ask
for
a
better
way
to
have
grown
up.
G
So
I
want
to
use
that
experience
here.
You
know
my
kids
have
always
been
in
public
school,
so
my
one
they're
twins,
my
one
son's
a
freshman.
My
other
son
is
a
sophomore.
So
I
understand,
then,
on
the
parent's
side,
how
that's
been
you
know
throughout
their
whole
career
and
they
their
their
school
career,
which
they
started
out
in
raleigh,
and
then
they
were
in
lynchburg
now
now
here
in
bedford,
county.
My
business
experience,
I
think,
would
also
benefit
the
board.
I've
understood.
G
G
I
understand
you
know,
profitability
and
looking
at
budgets
and
understanding
that
sometimes
there
are
very
tough
decisions
that
need
to
be
made,
but
we
have
to
make
sure
that
we
do
the
best
that
we
can
with
the
money
that
we
have.
We
have
to
be
good
stewards
of
that
money
as
well.
So
I
think
overall,
I
think
it's
pretty
well-rounded.
G
H
G
As
far
as
the
offerings,
I
think
that
you
know,
I
think,
that
it's
important
for
every
every
child
in
in
the
community,
no
matter
what
school
that
they're
going
to
to
have
an
equal,
an
equal
chance
to
to
experience
the
same
classes,
whether
there's
a
class
that's
offered
here-
that's
not
offered
in
another
school.
I
think
we
need
to
try
to
find
good
solutions
to.
How
can
we
get
those
kids
to
have
the
same
experience
and
that
I
think
goes
for
everything.
G
I
think
that
if
we
have
a
standard
that
that
we're
setting
for
our
every
school
every
school
has
got
to
get
to
that
standard,
every
school's
got
to
have
the
same
has
got
to
have
the
same
offerings
and
the
same
opportunities
for
school.
So
I
know
that
there's
a
primary
school
in
district
7
that
does
not
have
a
gym.
So
what
do
we
do
for
those
kids
when
it
rains
and
stuff
so
they're
they're
at
a
disadvantage?
G
So
I
think
that
if
we
have
a
bottom-line
set
of
standards
that
we
have
for
our
schools,
that
means
every
school
has
got
to
at
least
get
to
that
that
get
to
that
standard.
You
know
my
son
has
special
needs.
My
one
son
has
special
needs
so
as
far
as
as
as
that
goes
that
that
holds
a
very
special
place
in
my
heart.
You
know,
I
understand
how
it's
been
since
he's
been
in
kindergarten
to
go
to
iep
meetings
and
to
a
have
to
fight
for
your
child
but
b.
G
I
think
it's
very
scary
early
on
not
knowing
exactly
what
to
ask
for
so
it
really
needs
to
be
the
teachers,
the
aides
guidance
counselors,
everybody
around
the
table
pulling
together.
So
I
want
to.
I
want
to
a
work,
definitely
with
a
special
with
special
needs
on
what's
working
and
what
else
can
what
else
can
we
do,
but
for
new
parents?
I
think
it's
really
scary
because,
again,
like
I
said
they
don't
know
exactly
what
services
that
they
could
be
a
and
title
two
would
be.
They
should
be
pushing
for.
G
In
my
experience
with
my
son
with
this
with
special
needs
program,
especially
here
he
goes
to
jf.
His
teachers
have
been
great
and
one
thing
that
I've
always
asked
for,
and
I
love
having
that
great
relationship
with
teachers
is,
if
you,
if
you
ask
them
to
do
something,
they
think,
is
the
best
interest
in
your
child
and
they're
willing
to
do
that
for
you,
so
my
one
son
will
always
try
to
get
away
with
something-
and
I
said,
look
if
he
can
do
something.
G
My
gut
his
job
is
to
be
able
to
do
it,
so
you
have
to
hold
him
accountable
and
you
have
to
pull
him
along
and
get
him
to
do
that
and
they
they
do
that
without
question.
They
they
meet
his
needs
they
and
they
they
do
push
him
or,
I
would
say
they
do
pull
them
along,
so
that
he
can
be
the
best
the
best
he
can
be,
and
then
you
know,
as
he
gets
older,
contribute
to
society.
So
I
would
say,
special
needs
is
highly
important.
G
Sports
is
also
something
that
I
grew
up
playing
sports,
so
I
played
high
school
baseball.
Couldn't
play
basketball?
We
didn't
have
a
hockey
team,
but
thought
so
baseball
was
what
it
was
for
me.
So
I
definitely
like
seeing
good
sports
programs.
I
think
that's
important,
because
sports
teaches
us
a
lot
of
different
things.
It
teaches
us
how
to
be
great
teammates.
G
G
And
I
think
that
as
a
school
board,
our
job
is
oversight
and
and
and
again
accountability.
So
I
look
at
it
through
my
private
experience.
So
at
our
stores
you
know
the
most
important
thing
is
the
sub
that's
being
made.
Then
we
have
the
managers
and
then
we
have
you
know
we
have
like
directors
of
operations
and
then
we
have
like
administrative
and
office.
So
if
you,
if
you
look
at
that-
and
you
go,
how
do
we
do
this?
As
a
school
district?
We
have
the.
G
We
have
the
schools
and
students,
we
have
the
principals
that
essentially
are
the
managers.
Then
the
director
of
operations
and
support
staff
would
be
the
superintendent
and
the
people
in
the
administration
and
then
on
top
of
that
would
be
us
and
our
job
is
to
make
sure
that
we're
get
we're
budgeting
properly.
G
A
A
A
G
We
need
to
recognize
where
we,
where
we
stand
as
far
as
where
we
are
situated
geographically
and
and
what
kind
of
the
history
has
been
you
know,
I
think
one
of
the
things
for
education
is
that
we
we
can't,
we
shouldn't
try
to
put
every
child
in
the
same
in
the
same
box.
Certain
kids
are
definitely
going
to
be
going
to
college
other
kids.
We
want
to
make
you
know
we
want
to
make
sure,
there's
other
opportunities
for
them
career-wise.
G
G
He
understood-
and
this
is
where,
like
as
the
as
the
schools
and
and
guidance
counselors,
they
can
help
that's
their
job
to
help
kind
of
guide
you
to
things
that
you
like,
and
how
how
to
set
you
up
for
success,
and
they
said
that
would
be
really
good
for
you.
Well
now,
fast
forward,
25
years
later,
he's
got
his
own
company.
He
has.
He
has
probably
10
employees
that
work
for
him
and
they
all
work
in
the
same
area
where
we
grew
up
and
went
to
school,
so
that
supports
the
economy.
G
If
we,
you
know
we're
going
to
want
to
develop
everybody
from
every
sector
in
the
economy,
we
want
to
have
people
that
go
to
our
schools
that
become
doctors
and
nurses.
We
want
them
to
become
teachers
and
and
in
educators,
but
we
want
them
to
have
business
opportunities
too,
and
I
think
that's
an
important
thing
that
we
need.
We
need
to
focus
on.
G
I
didn't
start
learning
much
about
business
until
college
and,
to
be
honest
with
you
by
the
time
I
got
to
college,
I
was
unsure
of
what
I
wanted
to
do,
but
when
I
got
to
college
and
took
electives
in
business,
I
said
this
is
clicking
for
me.
I
really
wish
that
that
opportunity
had
been
presented
presented
earlier,
so
simple
things
from
like
understanding
how
to
like
balance
checkbooks
and
things
like
that.
G
Educating
the
kids
here
and
obviously
this
community
is
a
great
community
to
grow
up
in
that
when
they
grow
up
they're
going
to
want
to
stay
here,
and
that
means
they're
going
to
want
to
start
businesses
here
or
they're
going
to
want
to
become
teachers
here
and
just
to
continue
the
tradition
that
we
have
here,
but
also
bring
us
to
the
next
level.
So
that's
that's
kind
of
what
I'd
like
to
see.
D
G
You
know,
I
think
that
we
always
you
know,
budgeting
always
becomes
an
issue
in
school,
so
we
always
have
to
make
some
tough
decisions.
I
think
that
some
of
the
challenges
that
we
have
here
may
be
with
some
of
our
facilities
that
we
have
not
being
not
being
up
to
speed.
I
think
that
there's
you
know
we
have
to
look
at
everything
from
safety
issues
in
schools,
schools
not
having,
like
I
said,
having
gyms
and
things,
so
I
think
that
we
need
to
make
sure
that
that
we
are
we
are
addressing.
G
G
Focus
on
reading
writing,
math,
science,
all
of
the
actual,
the
core
subjects,
because
I
think
that
that
that
is
that
is
huge
for
for
us
to
be
able
to
do.
I
think
we
have
to
look
at.
We
have
to
look
at
how
we're
testing
the
kids
and
not
necessarily
to
try
to
teach
them
to
pass
a
test,
but
to
teach
them
so
that
they
have
the
knowledge
to
go
into
the
future.
G
A
G
Well,
you
know
I
really
didn't
have
any
any
thoughts
about
running
for
for
anything.
You
know
I
I've
sat
way
back
there
and
and
have
observed
everybody
here
since
since
august
of
this
past
year-
and
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
struck
me
is.
Is
I
really
like
when,
when
something
is
presented
to
the
board,
the
way
that
questions
are
asked?
G
I
really
like
simple
questions
and,
and
that
way
I
think
that
you're
able
to
get
more
direct
answers,
one
of
the
things
sitting
there
and
I
was
very
proud
to
be
in
district
7
and
to
have
mr
leamy
as
our
representative,
one
of
the
things
I'd
like
to
do
is
you
know
I'm
representing
that
area,
and
I
think
that
I
would
like
to
try
to
continue
his
legacy
and
what
he
brought
to
the
table.
I
felt
like
his
correct.
His
questions
were
direct.
I
don't
think
he
was
ever.
G
He
ever
spoke
out
of
turn
or
or
put
anybody
down.
I
just
liked
that
it
was
a.
It
was
a
very
simple,
direct
way
of
asking
questions,
and
I
think
that
for
the
parents
and
everybody
that
wat
that's
watching
it,
it
made
everything
very
attainable
to
understand
what
was
going
on
at
the
at
the
board
level.
So
that
would
be
the
one
thing
to
do
would
be
to
continue
that
legacy.
The
second
thing
would
be
to
like.
I
said.
G
I
think
that
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
are
trying
to
attain
a
certain
standard.
That's
a
base
standard,
so
I
want
to
get
every
school
to
that
standard
because
you're
only
as
good
as
your
as
your
weakest
link,
so
we're
only
as
good
as
our
weakest
school.
So
we
have
to
address.
We
have
to
address
any.
G
A
A
A
I
Be
that
it
gives
you
perspective
on
what
current
teachers
we
have
and
their
teaching
strategies
that
are
in
use,
current
policies
that
are
in
use
that
directly
affect
students
and
add
a
third
one.
There
it'll
come
back,
but
so
in
a
and
so
in
the
student
perspective.
So
that's
a
big
one,
but
then
also
having
been
a
student.
It
lets
you
know
other
students
who
are
still
in
it.
I
That's
been
an
experience,
because
then
you
get
to
see
how
each
school
handles
things
differently.
When
I
was
just
a
student,
I
had
three
schools
that
I
got
to
learn
from,
but
then
over
the
course
of
substitute
teaching
is
given
the
perspective
of
what
works
in
one
school
is
modified
in
order
to
work
in
another
one.
So
it
gives
you
sort
of
more
of
that
encompassing
perspective
of
what
everything
looks
like
another
thing
is
my
involvement
with
low
time
players
in
bedford.
I
Theater
is
a
very
important
part
of
low
time
players
because
that's
what
it
is
as
a
theater,
and
so
it
gives
me
the
perspective
of
what
we
hope
to
achieve
in
terms
of
fine
arts
involvement
in
the
schools.
That's,
I
think,
it's
very
important
and
I
think
it's
something
that
we
have
found
throughout
the
entirety
of
the
last
two
years.
I
I
To
answer
the
first
part
with
the
program
of
studies
is
always
relevance.
I
think
that's
a
key
idea
that
has
to
be
addressed
in
all
programs
of
studies
is
the
relevance
to
the
student
what's
important
to
them.
What
do
they
want
to
study
some
opportunity
for
choice,
relevance
to
the
community
at
large?
You
don't
want
to
offer
a
course.
I
That's
going
to
have
no
benefit
to
the
community,
because,
ultimately,
that's
the
goal
of
public
education
is
to
give
students
the
opportunity
to
give
back
to
their
communities
through
education,
and
so
it
really
comes
down
to
relevance
in
that
regard.
Programs.
A
study
that
I
care
about,
I'm
a
history.
H
I
I
was
at
jefferson
forest
high
school
and
I
was
in
their
theater
program
and
you
really
cannot
put
a
dollar
amount
on
the
benefits
that
you
get
from
a
theater
experience
like
that,
because
it
teaches
you
community,
it
teaches
you
the
importance
of
other
people,
listening
communicating
with
others
the
importance
of
really
supporting
one
another
and
it's
and
it
doesn't
just
go
for
theater.
It
goes
for
band
and
for
require
as
well,
and
it
extends
even
into
the
sports
world.
I
You
want
your
people
that
you're
working
with
to
have
your
back,
and
so
that
is
something
that
all
of
these
develop
and
it's
a
key
character
characteristic,
that's
necessary,
as
you
grow
up
they're
in
a
soul
that
I
associate
now.
That
is
that
I'm
not.
I
know
that
they've
got
my
back.
I
know
that
they're
going
to
support
me
and
that's
something
that
I
tried
to
instill
in
anyone
that
I
come
in
contact
with
in
the
schools.
I
I
coach
a
section
of
the
debate
team
at
jf,
and
I
emphasize
I'm
here
for
you
we're
going
to
support
you,
your
teammates
they're,
going
to
support
you
in
whatever
way
is
possible,
and
so
these
are
some.
Those
are
it's
broad,
but
it's
specific
to
me
and
that
these
are
the
areas
that
I
really
care
about,
and
I
mean
I'm
not
a
math
person,
I'm
not
a
science
person.
I
leave
it
to
those
who
are
extremely
knowledgeable
in
those
to
really
put
forth
emphasis
on
those
history
and
social
studies.
D
I
Education
in
vector
county
really
goes
back
to
relevance
is
one
thing,
but
it's
also
expansion
of
ideas
and
the
presence
of
intellect
throughout
medford
county
public
schools,
and
that
intellect
people
like
to
think
that
it's
book
smarts
is
the
definition
of
intellect
but
intellect
expanded
throughout.
All
areas
of
the
educational
system,
so
intellect
doesn't
mean
you
have
to
ace
the
history
test,
your
mechanical
skills,
your
culinary
skills.
I
All
of
these
skills
are
intellects
that
you
have,
and
you
display
very
well,
and
so
all
education,
not
just
here
in
bedford,
county
but
all
across,
should
be
education
that
is
relevant
to
the
students
relevant
to
the
community
and
allows
for
them
to
express
and
to
give
back
without
putting
the
stipulation
of
yes.
We
want
you
to
succeed,
but
we
want
you
to
succeed
in
these
specific
areas
that
we've
predetermined
so
well.
I
Instead,
it
needs
to
be
the
chance
for
a
student
who
doesn't
excel
in
reading.
Writing.
Arithmetic,
but
instead
excels
in
mechanics
engineering,
anything
around
those
ideas,
giving
them
the
opportunity
to
succeed,
because
that's
what
it
comes
down
to
is
your
13,
12
or
13
years
that
you
spend
in
the
public
school
system.
I
It
should
be
a
road
and
it
has
several
different
turns
that
you
can
go
down
in
order
to
find
your
destination.
That
destination
is
where
you
help
the
community,
whether
it
be
all
right,
you've
gone
down
the
road
of
education
in
history.
Now
you
give
back
as
a
history
teacher
you've
gone
down
the
road
of
the
culinary
arts.
So
now
you
get
to
become
a
cook
in
your
community
which
impacts
the
economy.
I
We
see
it
more
and
more
every
day
that
our
service
industry
and
entertainment
industry
are
increasing.
So
therefore,
our
educational
system
should
increase
along
with
it.
If
there
is
a
market
there,
if
there's
an
opportunity
there,
then
it
is
the
job
of
the
school
system
to
help
fill
in
by
promoting
informed
individuals
who
can
fill
those
positions
appropriately,
and
so
I
hope
that
answers
that
question.
Thank
you.
I
I
I
think
we
live
in
a
time
where
there's
a
lot
of
division
among
people
about
who's
right,
who's,
wrong.
I'm
right,
you
were
wrong
and
we're
so
polarized
and
people
can't
seem
to
see
that
there
is
not
strictly
black
and
white,
but
many
different
shades
of
gray
in
between,
and
so
for
me
that's
one
of
the
key
things
that
needs
to
be
addressed.
Is
that
you're,
not
my
enemy?
If
you
have
a
different
view
than
me,
I
certainly
have
never
lived
my
life
that
way,
I'm
willing
to
work
with
anyone
across
the
board,
regardless.
I
If
I
disagree
with
you
or
not,
because
I
believe
that,
with
conversation
and
with
debate,
you
can
reach
something
that
helps
everyone
in
some
way.
Not
just
one
group
has
to
get
their
way
all
the
time,
and
it
should
never
be
that
way.
That
goes
against
the
foundation
of
everything
that
we
as
a
society
are
supposed
to
believe
and
so
with,
and
I
think
parents,
as
one
group
feel
that
they're
not
heard
as
much.
I
think
that's
an
issue
that
faces
the
system
as
so
it
comes
down
to
that.
I
I
What
matters
is
that
you
allow
people
the
opportunity
to
speak,
and
you
show
that
you
reflect
on
what
they've
said
that
to
me
is
a
critical
point
to
the
second
one
teachers
deserve
to
teach.
I
feel
that,
from
my
experience,
our
teachers
feel
that
they're
restricted
in
a
way
that
they
weren't.
If
you
go
back,
maybe
five
six
years,
they
feel
that
they
don't
have
as
much
opportunity
to
really
do
what
they
want
to
do,
because
they
have
to
worry
so
much
about
outside
opinion.
I
I
I
want
you
to
come
to
your
own
determinations,
your
own
beliefs,
not
follow
mine,
because
it's
that
doesn't
matter
what
matters
is
the
student
which
leads
to
the
third
truth
of
whatever
is
best
for
students
needs
to
be
done,
and
now
people
will
say
well,
I
know
exactly
what's
right
for
students
and
other
people
go.
No,
I
do
that's
where
it
comes
down
to
it
is
nobody
has
all
the
answers.
I
I
And
so
that's
the
key
thing
is
understanding
that
we
all
have
different
ideas
of
what
education
should
look
like
for
students,
and
it
goes
to
motives
not
that
they're
bad
motives,
they're
legitimate
motives
if
they
weren't
legitimate,
we
wouldn't
keep
hearing
about
them.
If
they
were
illegitimate,
we
would
say
they're
crazy.
No,
we're
not
going
to
listen
to
that
idea,
but
everyone's
motives,
for
the
most
part,
are
sincere
and
they're
trying
to
express
the
view.
I
But
so
what
that
comes
down
to
is
fair
consideration
and
deliberation
on
what
is
best
for
students,
and
it
doesn't
just
mean
trying
to
figure
out
what
was
best
for
them.
That's
the
key
differences
is
not
what's
best
was
best
so
10
years
ago.
You
may
have
wanted
to
fix
something
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
present
is
the
time
for
it,
because
what
that
change
would
have
done
back
then
may
not
be
the
same
effect
that
it
has
today.
I
I
I
If
the
last
two
years
have
not
been
able
to
destroy
students,
I'm
very
faithful
that
a
dis,
a
policy
decision
isn't
going
to
do
it
either,
because
every
day,
when
I've
gone
into
schools,
children
are
still
coming.
They're
still
active,
they're
still
trying
to
learn,
and
so
the
spirit
is
destined
to
try
to
learn
and
it's
the
job
of
anyone
to
just
give
it
the
option
of
where
to
learn
how
to
learn
and
let
it
be
so
that
that
way
they
can
learn,
don't
obstruct
it.
I
The
student
is
the
most
important
stakeholder
in
public
education
because
they're
the
ones
who
it
affects
they're,
the
ones
that
affects
today,
they're
the
ones
that
it
affects
10
years
from
now,
20
years
from
now
50
years
now,
60
years
from
now,
when
I'm
long
gone,
it's
them
that
matters
most,
and
so
hopefully
that
answers
your
question.
Ms
kirby.
C
I
I
think
par
a
lot
of
these
things
I
think
go
in
with
each
question
that
I've
answered
so
far
and
one
of
them
is.
I
want
to
work
with
everyone
and
that's
something
that
I've
had
ever
since
the
beginning
of
my
educational
career
in
kindergarten
is,
I
want
to
work
with
everyone.
I've
never
been
the
one
to
say,
I'm
only
going
to
work
with
these
people
or
these
people.
I
So
at
a
time
like
this,
I
feel
that's
important.
Is
I
don't
like?
I
said
I
don't
care.
If
you
disagree
with
me,
I'm
willing
to
talk
to
you,
I'm
willing
to
meet
with
you
hear
what
you
say,
because
you
can
persuade
me
you
can
persuade
me
I'm
willing
to
be
persuaded
if
there's
a
good
enough
argument
before
me,
and
so
that's
one
thing
that
I
would
like
to
see
changing
the
whole
culture
of
bedford,
county
public
schools.
I
Is
that
we're
open
to
ideas,
but
we're
willing
to
defend
our
stances
and
we're
willing
and
that's
it
is
we're
willing
to
debate
them.
It
doesn't
have
to
be
that
we
all
agree,
but
it
just
has
to
be
that
everyone
gets
their
say.
Everyone
gets
their
fair
say
and
then
a
reasonable
solution
is
found,
so
that
goes
to
the
culture
of.
It
is
just
openness
and
understanding
of
where
people
are
coming
from
other
things,
and
this
is
one
that
affects.
I
It's
something
that's
there
and
it's,
and
it
just
has
to
be
addressed
that
people
who
go
through
other
programs
to
vocational
school
are
equally
as
important
to
society.
They're,
no
less
intelligent,
they're,
no
less
important,
they're,
no
less
anything
than
someone
who
goes
to
a
four-year
school
or
someone
who
has
a
doctor,
we're
all
people
who
contribute
in
a
different
way
to
the
overall
growth
of
society.
I
And
so
that's
one
thing.
That's
important
is
showing
that
we
support
cte
programs
just
as
much
as
we
support
early
college
just
as
much
as
we
support
ap
classes,
pre-ap
classes.
All
of
these
are
held
equal
because
they
all
have
the
potential
to
be
equal
to
the
overall
growth
of
society.
And
so
that's
a
big
thing.
I
I
I
Why
are
they
about
the
ones
that
are
directly
affected
by
the
decisions?
They're,
the
ultimate
stakeholder,
it's
their
future?
That
is
being
invested
in
here
in
schools,
and
so
that's
a
little
bit
of
a
side
tangent
but,
like
I
said
I
knew
I'd
come
up
with
something
that
addressed
a
question
beforehand,
but
so
that
is
those
are
some
of
the
areas
that
I
would
love
to
see.
Improvement,
and
I
mean
other
things
I
feel
like.
I
A
lot
of
history
has
happened
since
2000
when
some
of
these
books
were
brought
forward.
So
it'd
be
nice
to
have
books
that
reflect
it
reflect
the
changes,
because
20
years
is
a
big.
If
you
ever
study
history
20
years,
a
lot
happens
in
20
years
that
you
want
to
make
sure
that
you're
cognizant
of
and
aware
of
in
the
history
books,
and
so
those
are
those
are
some
of
the
areas
that
I
personally
would
like
to
see.
But
then
it's
also.
I
I
want
to
hear
what
the
community
says
that
they
want,
because
I
mean
these
are
just
ones
that
I
personally
have
experienced.
I
can't
experience
everything
under
the
sun
there's
not
enough
hours
in
the
day,
nor
enough
days
in
my
lifetime
to
do
it,
and
so
that's,
and
that
goes
back
to
the
importance
of
the
community
expressing
what
they
want
to
the
body.
So
that
that
way,
you
can
have
that
all-encompassing
view
of
everything
within
your
community
and.
E
I
It's
not
some
sort
of
fractured
we're,
not
a
fractured
event.
It
isn't
the
microcosm
of
the
school
board
microcosm
of
parents,
students,
teachers,
it
can't
all
be
separate.
It
just
can't
be
because
then
that
leads
to
dysfunction.
It
leads
to
issues.
It
always
has
to
be
cohesive
and
ingrained
together.
I
So
that
way
you
benefit
everyone.
Even
if
it's
not
everyone
gets
100
of
what
they
want,
because
I
don't
know
about
you
all,
but
I've
never
gotten
100
of
what
I
want
and
it's
just
it's
important
to
recognize
that
you
can't
get
100,
but
you
take
what
you
can
get,
because
everything
is
still
a
step
forward.
You
never
go
a
step
backward.
You
keep
moving
forward,
advancing
and
increasing
your
overall
benefit,
and
so
those-
and
so
I
hope-
that's,
I
hope-
that's
enough.
Those
are
some
areas
that
I
would
like
to
see
improved.
A
Okay,
mr
smith,
you've
answered
all
six
questions
very
well.
We
appreciate
you
coming
out.
Thank
you.
We
have
one
more
interview
to
do
then
we're
going
to
go
into
closed
session
to
discuss
at
that
point.
You're
welcome
to
come
out
here
and
wait
and
go
until
we
come
back
and
make
our
vote.
So
that
way
you
can
be
here
or
you
can
go
and
catch
us
on
youtube.
A
A
A
J
So
if
appointed,
I
believe
that
of
course,
number
one
being
a
parent
being.
A
parent
is
the
most
important
experience
being
a
school
board
member
because
we
are
here
for
the
students-
and
I
think
too,
that
my
experience
as
an
educator
obviously
greatly
helps-
and
my
experience,
as
you
know,
with
my
classwork-
is
very
helpful
as
well,
but
I
think
my
experience
in
working
with
the
community
for
years
is
very,
very
helpful.
I
had
the
opportunity
as
a
principal
to
work
with
the
communities
of
stant
river
high
school
and
liberty
high
school.
J
I
watched
communities
pull
together
and
at
state
river
high
school
in
particular,
I
watched
them
just
literally
build
the
field
house
through
their
fundraising
and
how
they
all
got
together
and
just
worked
so
hard
to
make
that
building
a
reality,
and
so
the
power
of
the
community
and
the
power
of
parents
working
together
was
just
very
important.
At
liberty,
high
school,
I
saw
grandparents
work,
retirees
work
together
at
larry
high
school.
A
J
So
I
would
really
like
to
see
our
career
in
technical
center,
those
classes
just
enhanced
even
more.
I
mentioned
monday
night
that
the
classes
that
the
cte
classes
I
had
watched
them
really
just
be
gutted,
and
I
was
just
so
encouraged
to
see
that
they
had
really
started
to
come
back
and
I
would
like
to
see
more
expansion
with
those
programs.
You
know
years
ago,
and
this
is
a
lot
of
years
ago-
it's
jf
there
used
to
be
agriculture,
and
so
you
know
why
don't
we
have
agriculture
at
jf.
J
Is
that
something
is
that
something
to
look
into?
Would
love
to
see
more
pathways
to
jobs
through
the
cte
world?
So
cte
is
a
big
passion
of
mine
is
something
that
I
would
like
to
see.
I
would
also
love
to
see-
and
you
know
when
you
think
of
academics-
a
lot
of
people-
don't
think
of
the
library
as
being
academic,
but
oh,
it's,
the
hub
of
academics
and
the
library
is
where
you
have
the
research
going
on.
It's
where
you
have
technology
going
on.
J
It's
where
you
have
groups
of
kids
getting
together
and
collaborating
and
talking
and
it
reaches
into
all
the
disciplines,
and
so
the
library
is
so
incredibly
important.
So
we
need
full-time
librarians
at
the
high
school
level.
We
need
them
at
the
middle
school
level
and
we
definitely
need
them
at
the
elementary
level,
and
I
would
love
to
see
an
elementary
school
with
a
lot
to
have
a
librarian
in
every
school.
I
would
love
to
see
also
art
teachers
at
every
school.
J
That
would
be
very
helpful
academically.
I
am
I
you
know.
I've
been
following,
along
with
the
board
meetings
by
line
and
thankful
to
the
technology
folks
for
making
that
happen,
and
that's
been
really
good
and
as
I've
been
following
along,
I
I
noticed
that
the
you
know
this.
The
student
growth
is
not
where
we
would
want
it
to
be,
and
I
think
that's
a
lot
due
to
the
pandemic.
J
I
think
also
it's
you
know,
because
kids
have
been
in
front
of
a
computer
and
for
an
extended
amount
of
time
and
that's
really
really
tough
and
what
type
of
methodology
has
been
used
with
that.
You
know
some
of
those
scores
when
you,
when
you
look
at
third
grade
math
and
you
see
23
pass
rate
when
you
look
at
third
grade
reading
and
you
see
51
percent
pass
rate-
it's
it's
just
it's
very
concerning.
So
there
are
learning
gaps
there.
J
There's
learning
loss
there
that
that
really
need
some
attention,
and
I
think
we
have
to
look
at
the
methodology
that's
being
used
on
the
computer
one
particular
I
noticed
that
we
had
competency
based
specialists,
people
working
with
that
type
of
methodology
and
that's
the
type
of
methodology
that
has
been
around
for
a
long
time.
In
fact,
I
tell
this
story
frequently
when
I
was
a
student
at
elementary
school.
J
We
did
not
have
math
teachers.
Instead,
we
had
a
cart
and
it
was
called
the
individualized
mathematics
system
ims
program,
and
so
you
it
was
a
competency-based
instructional
program.
You
went
to
the
cart,
you
pulled
out
your
lesson
and
basically
the
folder
taught
you
and
you
know,
for
four
years
I
never
had
a
math
teacher
stand
up
and
teach
math.
And
finally,
when
I
got
to
seventh
grade,
I
remember
roy
monk
was
the
classroom
teacher
and
he
stepped
in,
and
he
said.
J
Oh,
this
is
not
okay
and
he
did
the
brave
thing
and
he
rolled
the
cart
out
of
the
way
and
he
pulled
out
the
textbooks
and
he
taught
math.
But
that
was
like
four
years
later
and
so
you
know
I
went
on
and
I
caught
up
with
my
math
several
didn't.
When
I
did
the
doctorate
and
all
you
know,
I
learned
how
to
do
the
t-test,
the
anova,
the
pearson
rs
and
all
those
things,
but
for
many
people
it
was
just
so
hard
to
recover
from
it
so
that
competency-based
instructional
program,
even
in
the
70s.
J
That's
the
same
thing,
unfortunately,
that
these
computer
companies
do
today
on
the
computer.
It's
just
not
in
the
card
anymore,
it's
on
the
computer
and
I
actually
have
an
article
that
is
very
fascinating.
I'll,
be
glad
to
send
you
a
link
to
it.
It's
from
the
federalists,
it's
a
conservative
magazine,
but
it
really
talks
about
competencies
and
articles
like
why
competency-based
education
will
deepen
america's
education
crisis
and
it
says
in
the
face
of
competency-based
education.
Decision
makers
must
consider
what
education
really
is
and
how
it
is
best
delivered.
J
J
So
I
think
the
code
of
virginia
gives
a
really
good
definition,
broad,
it's
more
like
a
mission
statement
and
it's
you
know
to
provide
a
free,
high
quality
education
to
every
student
of
child
age,
and
I
think,
that's
kind
of
like
the
overall
picture.
But
within
that,
when
you
look
at
the
code
of
virginia,
you
also
look
at
the
duties
and
the
responsibilities,
and
one
of
the
most
important
duties,
of
course,
is
to
hire
and
evaluate
the
superintendent
and
that
that
word
evaluate
is
kind
of
scary.
J
I
think
for
both
parties,
but
actually
it
doesn't
need
to
be.
When
you
think
of
evaluation,
it
should
be
thought
of
in
a
way
that
it
is
a
way
that
we
are
supporting.
We
are.
We
are
working
together
to
make
this
division
better
and
on
a
board.
You
have
people
that
are
out
in
the
field.
You
know
in
the
communities
hearing
listening
and
then
they
can
bring
those
concerns
to
the
chair
to
the
vice
chair
and
then
those
conversations
can
be
had
with
the
superintendent.
J
For
those
you
know,
formative
moments
and
say
this
is
these
are
some
things
that
maybe
we
can
work
on
together,
and
so
I
think
that
interaction
with
the
superintendent
that
that's
that's
the
job,
your
your
job-
is
to
help
the
superintendent
do
the
very
best
job
that
he
or
she
can
do.
I
think
another
role
of
the
school
board
is
to
have
to
to
be
able
to
adopt
sound
policies
that
are
aligned
with
the
code
of
virginia
that
are
aligned
with
the
virginia
department
of
education,
and
that
is
very,
very
important.
J
So,
when
you're
thinking
about
policies
you
are,
the
school
board
is
adopting
those
policies,
but
then,
with
the
superintendent,
the
superintendent
is
implementing
those
policies.
The
superintendent
is
in
the
school,
doing
the
work
and
and
making
sure
the
work
gets
done.
So
that's
the
hiring
piece.
The
board
is
hiring
the
superintendent
to
to
implement
those
policies
and
it's
very
important
for
a
board
to
not
do
the
superintendent's
job.
J
That's
that's.
The
superintendent's
job
is
to
to
do
the
managing
of
things
so
the
super,
so
the
board
is
to
write
the
policy.
This
is
what
we
need
to
do
and
then
looks
at
data
looks
at
information
listening.
One
sees
there's
problems
through
the
informal
evaluation
process
through
the
formula
evaluation
process
through
dialogue
through
a
discussion
sitting
down
and
talking
about
what
can
we
do
to
make
things
better,
other
things
the
school
board?
Does?
When
you
look
at
your
agenda,
I
mean
there's
just
lots
and
lots
of
tasks
down
there.
J
I
mean
you're,
looking
at
finances,
you
you
you
as
a
group
can
buy
a
property.
You
you
deal
with
personnel.
You
approve
the
personnel
report,
you're
approving
curriculum
things
when
you
are
signing
off.
You
are
also
dealing
with
with
discipline
of
students
you're
dealing
with
discipline
of
employees,
so
lots
and
lots
of
tasks
for
a
school
board
to
do.
I
think
the
most
important
thing
is
to
not
get
confused
the
differences
between
the
board's
role
and
superintendent's
role.
J
J
So
we
have
to
work
as
as
a
board,
and
we
have
to
work
with
our
community
groups
to
try
to
figure
out.
What
can
we
do
to
make
our
schools
better
to
make
our
schools
more
inviting
for
our
students
and
parents
to
want
to
come
to
school
here,
and
what
can
we
do
with
our
community
agencies
to
partner
and
to
support
each
other?
J
J
The
way
to
prepare
students
for
jobs
is
not
only
that
they
have
good
knowledge,
but
they
have
real
life
simulations.
We
give
them
experiences
that
directly
relate
to
the
jobs,
and
I
think
that
partnerships
with
the
communities
can
also
help
with
that.
So
a
vision
for
the
future
is
providing
a
quality
education
for
all
students,
but
also
partnering,
with
our
with
our
parents
and
with
our
community
members.
C
J
So
and
I
think
that
the
financial
issues
are
really
everywhere,
because
the
challenges
in
the
economy
and
also
you
know,
declining
enrollments
are
happening
not
only
here,
but
other
places.
Parents
are
choosing
home,
school
parents
are
choosing
private
school
and
so
and
when
one
child
walks
out
that
door,
that's
that's
thousands
of
dollars
and
that's
that's,
really
tough,
and
so
I
think
that
public
schools
have
to
be
able
to
stay
competitive
with
what's
happening
with
other
schools
and-
and
so
that's
that's
very
important.
J
I
think
in
education
we
are
seeing
that
that
there's
a
shortage
of
teachers.
It
is
really
hard
to
hire
teachers,
it's
really
hard
to
retain
them
and
to
complicate
the
fact
that
so
many
are
not
going
into
education.
Is
the
fact
that
when
they're,
when
they're
getting
out
of
school
and
they're
graduating,
then
all
these
districts
are
competing
for
them,
and
so
then
they've
got
one
district
over
here.
J
That
is
saying,
oh
we're
going
to
give
them
a
15
raise
and
then
the
other
district
saying
or
how
are
we
going
to
do
that
so
everybody's
like
competing
for
the
same
pool
of
teachers
and
that's
just
very,
very
difficult?
That
is
not
only
something
that
is
in
our
district,
but
just
it
just
goes
out
to
you
know
to
other
districts
to
where
we're
competing
with
each
other,
and
I
think
you
see
also
the
fact
of
just
unity
in
our
country.
J
This
is
a
time
where
it
just
seems
to
be
a
lot
of
disunity
and
that's
really
unfortunate.
We
all
need
to
be
standing
together
and
be
thinking
about.
What
can
we
agree
on?
What?
How
can
we
support
each
other?
How
can
we
have
respect
for
each
other?
How
can
we
think
and
let
other
people
think
and
just
just
be
able
to
grow
from?
J
Maybe
our
differences-
and
you
know
you
go
back
to
ronald
reagan
and
tip
o'neill
when
they
had
differences
and
they
were
able
to
talk
about
them
civilly
and
then
they
go
out
and
play
golf,
and
I
think
that
it's
important
for
for
us
to
you
know
in
education,
world
with
boards
and
just
across
everywhere.
We
need
to
have
civility
and
just
be
able
to
really
come
together
in
unity
to
work.
J
I
know
how
important
special
education
is
and
from
what
I'm
hearing
in
the
community
is
that
there
are
many
parents
out
there
that
are
saying
we
don't
have
enough
staff.
So
what
can
we
do?
Can
we
look
at
those
funding
streams,
and
can
we
look
to
find
ways
to
put
all
of
our
money
more
towards
the
front
lines
some
people
parents
are
saying
you
know
they're
concerned
about
restraint,
they're
concerned
about
calming
rooms.
What
can
we
do
to
make
them
feel?
More
comfortable
can
we
have
more
communication.
Can
those
practices
be
examined?
J
Can
we
work
with
them
and
show
them
what
the
calming
rooms
look
like?
Can
we
can
we
talk
more
about
restraint
and
ensure
parents
we're
not
doing
it
unless
there
is
an
absolute
emergency,
so
I
think
special
ed
would
love
to
see
something
there
again.
The
career
and
technical
education
programs,
I'd
love
to
see
that
built
upon
and
and
then
it
seems,
like
I've
already
gone
over
a
lot
of
this,
but
the
art
programs,
and
then
the
library
programs.
J
Of
those
things
that
I
mentioned
early
on,
we
want
to
have
a
nurse
at
every
school,
particularly
we
want
to
have
a
nurse
in
susie,
gibson,
science
and
technology
center
of
all
the
schools.
That
would
be
one
that
would
be
most
needed
and-
and
it's
so
important
to
have
that
health
care
for
our
students.
J
With
the
we
talked
about
the
decline
enrollment,
but
with
reversion
money
going
away,
we
have
to
plan
for
that
ahead
of
time
and
I'd
love
to
see.
The
financial
reports
reflect
the
reversion
money
where
it's
entering.
What's
that
point
of
entrance
and
where
is
it
going
so
that
we
can
really
get
a
handle
on
okay?
So
when
it
goes
away,
are
we
going
to
be
ready
for
it.
