What is your biggest fear as a mom of school aged kids? What about elementary school aged kiddos or even young elementary school aged kiddos, kindergarteners and 1st graders? Honestly one of a parent’s biggest fears are that there would be a school shooting or bombing and parents could lose their children forever.

The week ahead is going to busier than normal. The Editor will attend School Board meeting, Quorum Court meeting, and feature a business of the week.
The Marion County Quorum Court meets monthly to discuss ordinances concerning money by offices in Marion County. There are differing reasons for these offices to ask for money such as purchases of equipment, vehicles or programs. Some of these ordinances are clean-up ordinances because of typographical errors while others authorize raises for various county employees.
In Marion County, the politics can be fluid and on occasions needlessly rigid. The current period can be seen as bumpy, especially when considering the Marion County Quorum Court (MCQC).
The week ahead is not expected to be a heavy week. The Editor will attend a City Council Meeting, cover a high school student signing a National Letter of Intent to play sports at a Division-1 University, find a great place to eat breakfast and cover a local business that donates all revenue.
