TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! POLITICAL CHALLENGE TO FREEDOM, INC. 'PERSONAL AGENDA' AMID UPCOMING HICKMAN MILLS SCHOOL BOARD VOTE!!!
This morning we offer an EXCLUSIVE AND BREAKING NEWS update to an ongoing education struggle in a neighboring school district.
To wit . . .
RECENTLY WE'VE HEARD OF A CHALLENGE TO FREEDOM, INC. POLITICAL PLOY FOR CONTROL OF THE HICKMAN MILLS SCHOOL DISTRICT!!!
Even better . . .
CHECK OUT THIS CANDIDATE CALLING OUT THE FREEDOM, INC. "PERSONAL AGENDA" IN HER CAMPAIGN ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
This neighborhood struggle reveals that deep political divisions regarding education that not only consume the KCPS but also seem to be spreading across the metro.
Also, after last year's EPIC victory over the translational research tax in Jackson County . . . Local push back against Freedom, Inc. Seems inevitable.
Check it, the highlights are mine:
Hickman Mills School Board Elections In April 2014
My name is Sandy Sexton and I am one of nine candidates at this time running for school board. There are three seats open and so far there are nine candidates that have filed so far.
Incumbents: Dan Osman and Bonnaye Mims
Past board members: Debbie Aiman and April Cushing
New candidates: Karry Palmer and myself, Sandy Sexton
I have been told that there will be three candidates from Freedom, Inc, and I am assuming incumbent Breman Anderson, Jr. will be one of those three.
I would like to direct you to my website for the campaign to introduce myself and and wanted to further explain the reason why I am running.

As a member of the five-year strategic planning committee of the Hickman Mills School District, I am VERY supportive of Dr. Carpenter and his vision for our school district. I do not agree with some of the school board members from the Freedom, Inc. It seems that there is an underlying personal agendas, instead of focusing on education for our students.
I am supportive of Bonnaye Mims, Eric Lowe and Dan Osman.
Even though I am a white female, I don't think that the color of your skin should have any bearing on our decisions. I spent 19 years at Penn Valley Community College and have seen first hand of high school graduates that do not have the basic skills to pursue college, without having to take some college preparatory classes.
My hopes are to encourage basic skills education and making sure that our technology infrastructure is up-to-date to assist our educators in receiving the resources needed to prepare our students.

Every politician has a personal agenda. We need to focus on students not elected officials.

Except for sportscasters, air traffic controllers and call center customer service representatives, people who wear wireless microphone headsets are just fucking goofy.
ReplyDeleteFreedom will do the same with KCPS. This will not be the old Freedom who supported the multi racial slate and opposed the militant Black United Front a couple elections ago. This will be the new Freedom run by Clinton Adams and that dufus Gayle Holliday. They tell Kiki what to do and when to do it.
ReplyDeleteThis should go well (grabs popcorn).
ReplyDeleteIf you're white at all, you can forget being on the nigger school board.
ReplyDeleteniggers are stupid.
ReplyDeleteThe same old crowd is at least temporarily shut out of looting the KCPS and needs to find a new source of grifting. It probably won't be long before the Hickman Mills District is more about contractors, consultants, attorneys, and hiring unqualified family members that about teaching kids.
ReplyDeleteIt's really a shame, but it just never ends.
12:05 what you say is what I fear the most as a patron and taxpayer in HM C-1. Show me the non-grifter candidates and I'll vote for them even if they are purple with pink poka dots.
ReplyDeleteThe KCPS Board has done a good job of ridding the District of the Clinton Adams/Kiki Curls/Gwen Grant machine. They have tried to run the district in the ground for years...look at ACE for example. They don't care about their kids, they care about their power.
ReplyDeleteI thought Bonnye went to Jeff City. Isn't one elected office where she can be a monumental fuck up enough?
ReplyDeleteTime to leave Hickman Mill?
ReplyDeleteThe current board (minus Anderson) with Dr. Carpenters leadership seems to be making good strides and working well together. I'm still surprised that their aren't more candidates running for school board. White, black, yellow or brown, we need folks with integrity on that board.
ReplyDeleteOMG Did anyone actually read this? Would someone kindly provide Ms. Sexton with an editor please? Or Microsoft Word at least? Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteGrammar?
ReplyDeleteWell let's see which people would you like to vote for Bonnaye Mims or the Clinton Adam's crew? At least you knew where and what Mims stood for before these folks came into our school district. After they tried to censure her and fired the school attorney in order to give the job to Clinton Adams - whose dumb now? Do we want our school district to look like KCPS? After they sucked all of the contracts they could get. Why don't you look at the difference between Mims and Anderson's leadership and when the take over took place. Look at all of the board members records (Darrell Curls) will do anything to get elected. Mims should be ashamed of herself for helping him, now he cut her throat-State Rep is not in the cards for him. Anderson, look at ALL of the contracts he gave to his or shall I say, tried to give to his Freedom people and practically destroyed the people of our district and still trying to say "the people said." Ask how many lawsuits do or did the school district have under Anderson's leadership. Every time The Superintendent tries to handle the business of educating our children, he is always being cut up and cut down by the Clinton Adam's crew. If Mims is considered a "f--k up", ask why. Is it because she stands between the take over by the Adams crew, educating our children and doing the right thing in Hickman Mills School District? Adams crew: Darrell Curls, Breman Anderson, Byron Townsend and DaRon McGee. How about McGee being always meeting outside COMBAT and not at his job. Now put that in your pipe and smoke it...
ReplyDeleteLooks like the gauntlet has been thrown down. Watch the elections.
