1. Why do you want to run for a seat on the school board?
I believe in serving my community. It is who I am. I want to use my leadership training and experience to support the most important structure we have in our society education. My parents were both educators. My mother taught elementary school for years in Springfield. My Dad, a WWI veteran, received two years of business school education and taught in a one-room school in Arkansas before turning to business. My parents believed so strongly in the importance of a good education that they paid for my brothers and I to attend Greenwood Laboratory school, then paid for our college educations. They sacrificed. Now I want to serve by listening to the parents, teachers, counselors and students, and speak up for them. I want to help Dr. Mark Drake accomplish his goals and look forward to the growth of our school district.

5 p.m.: Regional authority says controlled blackouts could return Wednesday
A top official coordinating the response to power shortages throughout the Midwest told reporters Tuesday evening that rolling blackouts may not be over. We re not out of the woods, said Lanny Nickell, chief operating officer for the Southwest Power Pool, said. We are thinking that we could be in and out of this kind of situation through tomorrow evening. Hopefully by Thursday we can get out of this and we feel a lot better about Friday, he added.
