Editor:
I watched the two candidate forums for Columbia County School Board and I saw that Mike Sleeper, candidate in District 5, truly is focused on winning the race for the right reason: he cares about education and he wants to offer his experience and enthusiasm to help make an excellent school system even better.
Sleeper has already been involved in Columbia County schools in various ways, and he will continue to visit and communicate with teachers, administrators and students long after he is elected.
And I think one of the many good things about Sleeper is that he is concerned only with Columbia County schools. His opponent is employed by the Richmond County Board of Education, and while she may consider herself already in the educational system, it is the wrong system for this election.
Vote for Mike Sleeper. He cares only about what's best for Columbia County Schools.
