This episode we're addressing community concern surrounding changes in the current version of the Bexley City Schools' facilities plan, which would build a new middle school where the Cassingham softball field currently is and replace the natural turf fields at Montrose and Maryland Elementaries with artificial turf.

Montrose & Maryland Artificial Turf Opposition Petition (with research and source link in the petition)

Cassingham Outdoor Space Removal Opposition Petition

The Cassingham petition folks also have a website with additional information and resources. This is your chance to learn more and get involved so that the schools develop in ways consistent with the community's values and expectations.

Join Bexley School Board Candidates (and sitting members) Joanne Pickrell, Dr. Jonathan Baker, & Patrick King for a discussion of what they bring to the role and where they see the future of our schools headed.

You can find contact info & a biography for each of the board members here.

Hear from City Council Candidate Spencer Cahoon regarding his vision for the Bexley's future.

UPDATE - Spencer Cahoon decided not to pursue a partisan endorsement.

** We have extended invitations to all the city council and school board candidates. Most of the city council candidates have declined that invitation at this time, but we may hear from one other candidate. Should any of them change their mind, we'll be happy to share their vision with the community. Additionally, we expect to speak with our school board candidates soon. **
