“Parents on their own have senior pictures taken outside of the school.”
Dennis Wilson
“Schools will be busing kids in. We are holding it after school because we wanted to reach the parents.”
Everett Muhlhausen
“The way to improve schools is to give parents real options by providing parents with full school choice by allowing parents to choose another public school or a private school. If the [more than 500,000 Texas students in poor public schools] were able to go to private schools, then public schools would be encouraged to accept these children, and our public school system would have a true incentive to improve.”
Allan Parker
“Parents make tough calls every single day, and part of being a parent is knowing that sometimes the things you do will work and sometimes they won't work.”
Wanda Bethea
“I owe them a lot. It amazes me when I hear kids at school cussing their parents or saying they going to move out because their dad wouldn't let them go somewhere. I tell them they should know how lucky they are. A lot of them don't appreciate it like I do.”
Shawn Jones
“It's parents who most commonly start charter schools. So the community gets to decide what kind of school will most meet the neighborhood's needs.”
Phil Andrews
“Thanks to the COPS Secure our Schools Program, parents can send their children to school each day knowing they are safe from harm. I commend the law enforcement community in Mountain Home for securing these additional funds and look forward to working with them in the future to return more federal resources to Baxter County.”
