The President’s Perspective
Carole Jordan, Chapter President
I have a confession to make. There have been a few times in the past when I went into the voting booth without having researched my local school board races. Other positions got more publicity and had more money for advertising, so the school board was low on my list, leaving me guessing or not voting at all in some important local contests. I admit I was wrong. I’ll never do it again. Read my full message to learn why.
