This is a clip of the presentation of the Gilmer County B.O.E. presentation of a request for funds for a new elementary school in Normantown, WV to the West Virginia S.B.A. The clip comes on during the questioning phase from the SBA and highlights their questions about the request for one school when there are issues with multiple elementary schools in Gilmer County and why no plan is being presented for those schools.
What is the problem? You have two schools that are structurally unsound and almost 300 children who are in attendance at these schools? The obvious answer is to build a school equi-distant to the present locations to make commuting easier for all! I proudly grew up in WV and want our image to supercede that of hillbillies. Make smart decisions about education!
