ATTITUDE TOWARDS EDUCATION
Bud was on the high school board for 22 years. Few major problems. Some staff problems. Story of ex-Marine serving as a principle & his enforcement of physical education. Only building issue was bus barn after unit district came in and kids had to be bussed. Parents disliked consolidation because of travel, loss of local/small school and its programs. Bud thinks it best, but thinks legislature will have to mandate it to get some schools to comply - such as stop subsidies. Parents should think of educational advantages to consolidation.
