Just a reminder of how we can and should keep our school districts accountable:
Earlier this year, Alvord mother, Tracy Lodes had information that her school superintendent, John Trice, had potentially violated a number of laws, and in her trying to expose the infractions, she had been banned from her daughter’s elementary school campus.
Her local newspaper would not print any of the information she had, so we posted it on our blog - Voice of the Taxpayer - and got an astounding number of comments.
The allegation was electioneering on campus and we turned it over the AG and the Secretary of State’s office for investigation. Because of controversy over a number of issues, the superintendent resigned.
This is a video of her story:

This is awesome. This should be a lesson for us all to step up and take charge. Superintendents have too much control.
This is crazy! I can't believe there was nobody keeping track on this school system. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
I've posted this over on The Wise County Observer. Too bad this mom wouldn't want to contribute on a regular basis. Keep up the good work, everyone!
