Because we want a change and here are some ideas to help us reach our goal. Which is a better school system for our children.
The resolution from Smith County will be sent on to the state Rep. and senators. But if you know commisioners, county officals, or state officals in other parts of the state you need to copy the resolution from this site and send it to them. For the people to have a say this issue has to come before the state officals and it must come out of the education committee to allow the Rep. and Senators to have a chance on voting on it. The more counties and people contacting them at the state level the more likely it will be that is could be addressed. Many of the large Metro type systems like appointed and it works for them, but many smaller systems are having major problems. The resloution that Smith county passes gives the county the right to chose elected or appointed. This option gives the power back to the people. Shouldn't we have the right to chose for our own school system, that we suport with our tax dollars. So I would like to encourage you to copy this resolution and send it on to your friends all over the state. Encourage them to talk to the officals about it being voted on in their county and sent to the state. It truely is trying to allow the people a voice in their system. Start contacting you elected officals now so that when they take office they know you want to see action on the Director of Schools issue.

This is the link to the state general assembly website that has all of the house and sentate members. You just need to use the link of the left hand side of the page. Remember they may not live in our district but they are down there representing the people of there district and the state of Tennessee. They are all paid for by our tax dollars.http://www.legislature.state.tn.us/

I would like to urge everyone who cares about the children of Smith Co. to be at the next board meeting and show them you care. Lewis and Fox are ruining the educational system of our county and only our children will be paying the price. Please start contacting our local officals and state officals about the problems with the system. Many of us wait to get involved and that maybe why our system is in the mess it is in. Start calling Weaver and Beaver today or send an email, let them know we have a huge problem here. I emailed and it only took a few minutes to send and email. Fill their email box up so they understand the concern of the people in Smith Co. for their children. I also emailed other rep. and senators, it will take many of them to make a change at the state level.
