To the Editor:

Finally. I have been attending almost every LBI Consolidated school board meeting for the last eight years. It is exciting to see that someone, other than an incumbent, is running for a seat on this board. This nine-member panel needs “new blood.” While I thoroughly support the aspect of a new board member, I take exception to her ad in The SandPaper.

To the point: Accepting children from out of town is to fill empty seats under what is known as a choice program.
