I mistook your question as indicating you were satisfied with the board as it is.

Not all Republicans are Trumpoids Dog. And I don't hate Republicans even Trompoids. my attitude towards Trumpoids is like my attitude towards rats and c*ckroaches hating them is pointless they can't help being what they are, but I sure as hull don't want them around me.

It looks like several school personnel support Simmons and Roten on their campaign pages. So there's that.

You still haven't answered the question. What's wrong with the current approach?

A new approach in educating our children in the 21st century is needed. As far as her being a Democrat, I would hope that the Board members would keep politics out of the school system. With that said, I personally saw her at a Republican get together for Dan Forrest. Personally speaking, the school board is non-partisan and I would think that having people who had contacts with our state leaders would be a good thing and not one of contention as the education of our children is of the upmost importance. Please don't judge a book by its cover and give Roten and Simmons a chance.

Except since you now know that one is a democrat you will mark Simmons.

The school board doesn't set curriculum. The state does.

I understand you think there should be change. But if you can't answer a question why is change needed, you aren't making a Convincing case.

I would have a hard time voting for Simmons. She's a Democrat. Can't stand the thoughts of what would be taught in the schools

I for one am ready for change. Not been happy with the board the last several years. FINS, its up to you to vote for whomever you choose, I just feel like a change in the Board is needed. I thank Beckworth and Jones for their service, but the time has come to pass along the torch to the next generation. IMHO.

Why does the school board need change?

It's time for a change on the school board. We have had Beckworth and Jones for 20+ years and it is time for new blood. Simmons has a PhD in Education and Roten has served on the Board of Trustees for Wilkes Community College. They would bring some fresh faces to the Board. I for one am ready to give them a chance as change is a good thing. Get out and Vote Roten and Simmons 2020.
