We have board members who make an income off of all these small towns in Wise County. They decide what X amount of money goes to each school for what ever they need. But IMO the board is leaving out Appy and could care less really about trying to spend money on all these towns to make them look better. Is the excuse that well in a couple of years we will all consolidate anyway so why spend the money now? I thought when the lotto came in here that it was going to be a resource to help all our schools, but yet I've only seen that money go up Northern Va.. I don't know much about politics but I know that our school board is doing a poor job at funding for our schools. It would be nice to have a board that really cared enough to start making our towns look better. I don't care how many students attend these small schools they all deserve a nice school and gym. You don't spend on some schools and leave some out.
