Steve Hargrove Leaves Sheffield BOE

Not only has Keith Lankford left the Sheffield school system where he was superintendent, board member Steve Hargrove has also reportedly resigned. This may be old news to some who are in the know - it happened in June. Yet, there have been no public announcements about Hargrove's resignation.

The Muscle Shoals school board says that the only reason anyone moves to that Colbert County city is the quality of education. Really? Surely the city has other alluring attributes?

It's a good time to ask if Muscle Shoals does have a better quality of education than the other three major systems in the Shoals. Depending upon the criteria, the Florence City School System comes out first in many surveys. Florence also has much less drama and political machinations than Muscle Shoals while offering a more rounded education. Surely that counts for something? Thank you, Dr. Jimmy Shaw!
