Ward 3 E-Newsletter: July 2014

Greetings Ward 3 Resident,

July 4th marks the 238th birthday for our nation. For generations we as Americans have been blessed to live freely. It is easy to forget sometimes the true meaning behind Independence Day. Abraham Lincoln said it best “Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth”. A big reason why we are a free and great nation is because of the sacrifices made by our brave men and woman in the US Military. So for the upcoming holiday weekend if you see a veteran or a service member in uniform, thank them for their service. I wish you and your family a safe and fun holiday!

SINCE MY LAST SCHOOL BOARD UPDATE

On August 4th I attended the Ohio School Boards Association’s State Legislative Platform Committee Meeting in Columbus. We reviewed the proposed amendments to the platform, and voted on which ones to submit to the OSBA Delegate Assembly for approval. There was also a brief legislative update that was given. A big topic of discussion at meeting was the importance of local elected school boards in the state of Ohio having local control of the education of its’ students and how the Ohio General Assembly’s cuts the past two years have really hurt ability to do that.

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

On August 4th toured the progress of the Stadium Project. The press box has been completed, finishing touches are underway on the home side bleachers, and the turf was being laid down during my tour. The biggest thing that still needs to be completed is the track. It was great to see how much progress has been made since last month.
