Post from David Gholson

I, David Gholson, would like to have my name removed from the Lampasasvoice group as a potential candidate for Lampasas school board. When I first thought about running for school board my reasons included a desire for “change” with LISD. I recognize that we have a community with a huge vested interest for LISD students and/or employees and that want to be informed and involved. Two important changes that I believe would benefit our community are the transformation into a children/employee/community-friendly district and much improved communication between LISD and the children/employee/community. This includes treating everyone equal regardless of how much they or their parents make, how they dress, or simply who they know; hence, my belief that an old Lampasas cowboy that wears blue jeans and cowboy hat to work every day has a chance to make a difference. I want this difference and change to be something positive for Lampasas and not an ugly “us” against “them” mud fight; therefore, after consideration I have decided that should I choose to run for school board, I will do so on my own beliefs and desires as an individual not associated with any group, but with just the best interest of our community in mind. Thank you for this opportunity. I would be glad to talk to anyone personally if they have questions.

Sincerely,

David Gholson
