Huckleberries Online received this photo of our SD 271's newest trustee, Dominoes franchise owner Jim Hightower. Mr. Hightower will be representing Zone 5 after he is sworn in a the next meeting. At last night's meeting, Mr. Hightower stated he would like to "affect the curriculum" in some way in order to emphasize "practical skills" for our young people. Examples he listed were "to be able to read cursive, understand the value of credit, and be able to balance a checkbook." He also emphasized a person's integrity as the most valuable asset one can have.
