The Year to Come at the Lauderdale County BOE


At present, we have two or three individuals who have insight into the problems at the Lauderdale County Board of Education. At least one of our experts has promised to hang with us in the coming two years, and we hope the others do as well.

If you care about Lauderdale schools, now is the time to arm yourself with information about the board's plans. We're predicting that only a few will. When the actual school closings and other cut backs are announced, we're also predicting a huge backlash. Citizens will ask why weren't they told? Sad, isn't it?



A reader commented on our Stutts/Coffee blog:

The young lady was supposed to be 17, so why wasn't she in school? She wasn't of voting age, so couldn't have been a republican voter as her sign stated. The Morrow campaign had agree to cover up the elephant logo, and the state election officer when told they hadn't told them to send him a picture. Stutts stopped and did that. The Police was called by one of the workers. He was sitting sending the picture to the state when the police showed up.

We can't answer all the questions. If any readers can provide the information, please contact us: Shoalanda.Speaks@gmail.com.

  1. Do you ever say anything positive about Sheffield, Florence, Muscle Shoals, or Tuscumbia? Anything that might be helpful, anything that does not criticize what the local government is dealing with, or tying to accomplish? Do you have any suggestions, and what is your issue with Steve Hargrove? So easy to gripe and complain without offering anything as far as a better way of doing things, especially when cowardly hiding behind anonymity.

    1. You must not be a regular reader. We have many, many positive posts about Florence. We also have many about Tuscumbia. About Sheffield and Muscle Shoals? Not so much.

      Remember, 90% of our posts on these cities are written by guest bloggers, or perhaps J. Redmon who lives in Sheffield. Steve Hargrove? We have no issue with the person, nor do we know him. Many in Sheffield seem to have questions about his roles in various political situations.

      Better way? Again you must not read many of our blogs. We often offer advice on improving the Shoals...and have been sent thank yous for it.

  2. Perhaps.....and this is truly "wishful" thinking....PERHAPS when the county schools start closing for consolidation, some of the "lemmings" who vote for any yahoo on a ballot with the (R) by their name will START to wake up.....BUT, as I said, PERHAPS because in most cases the same "yahoo's" were REELECTED in Lauderdale county SIMPLY because of the (R) by their names on the ballot. Carolyn Waterman and especially JAMES DOLAN TRIED to tell you people about what would happen to Lauderdale County schools, but alas you would not listen....SO, you won't miss your FOOTBALL til the Friday night lights go out....That MIGHT just get some attention...Education of your children sure doesn't. PASS THE POPCORN!

  3. Skepticism and criticism are the natural price one must pay for the presumption of ruling over ones peers.

    1. Silly us. We thought the BOE ruled over the schools, not the citizens of Lauderdale County.
