Tuesday Night - District Dialogue on Election of School Board Members - Everyone Is Invited

The following information is from Representative Ty Harrell's website. Should make for lively discussion!

May 16th, 2008

Ty Harrell will moderate a "District Dialogue" Tuesday, May 20, from 7:00-8:00 pm [probably more like 8:30] at the Herb Young Community Center in Cary (101 Wilkinson Avenue). Many constituents and Wake County residents have expressed varying opinions about how we vote for Wake County School Board members - this event will provide a forum for discussion. Special guests include Gale Adcock, Town of Cary Council Member and Alexis Kateron, NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund.

Representative Harrell did tell me that Joe Ciulla (champion of at-large School Board elections) was to have been a panel member, but found out he had family conflicts. Harrell is trying to "even the playing field", but I think he's having some difficulty because so many who share Joe's viewpoint are parents and have to be with children at night...
