Chatham County School Daze

After a hiatus because of a serious family illness, I hope to be back with some regularity beginning now.

Yesterday’s Board of Education meeting was a long one but one which was again overdue. The rumor about the Board of Commissioners giving the school system another $6 million was squelched. Simply stated there has been no new money made available to the school system. There IS a plan whereby some borrowing capacity by the commissioners MIGHT be available to support a well developed plan by the schools with the following caveat: The MAJORITY of the funds need to be spent at Northwood High School.
