Sumner County School Board Chair Ted Wise announced at last night's Board meeting he is resigning from the Sumner County Commission's Ad Hoc Committee on School Safety.
Perhaps Wise's resignation comes as a result of pressure placed on him by Board members Don Long and Tim Brewer at a recent Board study session.
The move comes as the Committee has scheduled its first meeting for February 28th.
That meeting will occur AFTER the County Commission meets on Feb. 25th -- thus, making it impossible for the Committee's recommendations to be considered by the full Commission until March -- possibly at the March 18th County Commission meeting.
It is not clear what motivated Wise to step down. And the full agenda for the Ad Hoc Committee's Feb. 28th meeting has not yet been announced.
Will they take up the School Board's proposal for improvements to school buildings and additional SROs? What research is being done by the Committee on current school safety procedures? Will they make recommendations in time for the March 18th Commission meeting? Will the School Board adopt any of the recommendations? Will funding for school safety result in losing teachers and/or other staff in the 2013-14 school year? Stay tuned ...
