Just like how Nancy Good was asked to run by CJ himself. Good is on the board of Bright Futures with CJ, so how can we expect any change if she gets on the board? Good is already on record in the Joplin Glove saying that the current administration is doing a "remarkable job."

You have fallen victim to the spin the current Administration has put on her because they do not want change. Martucci has 3 kids enrolled in Joplin schools. Do you know the real reason why her one daughter does not go to NMS? Obviously not, because if you did you would not be repeating the false spin.

She has no vendetta with those who were rezoned the school districts boundaries. Campbell's children attended North Middle School and received an excellent education.

I think he will be a tremendous asset in oversight and problem solving. Put Koch, Martucci, and Roberts on that board with Fort and you will see changes taking place immediately. Put Campbell, Sharp, and Good on that board and the only changes you will see will be for the worse, if that is even possible.
