Richland
One’s school board has announced the establishment of
a 30-member Blue Ribbon Committee, a citizens’
advisory group to provide advice and oversight for the
middle and high schools’ facility construction program
approved in the Nov. 8 bond referendum.
Members
are: Rhett Anders, Ronald Anderson, Charles Blakely,
Herbert Bynoe, David Coward, Jean Danner, Tony Dowdy,
Rev. Charles Epps, Rev. Ed Francis, Steve Gantt, Betty
Gregory, Yvonne Hall, Bick Halligan, Robert Heppenstall,
III, Michael Jacobs, Milton Kimpson, Jim Leventis, Dan
Lott, Tom Marshall, Frank McBride, Sue McClam, Tony
McDonald, Henry McLaurin, Ike McLeese, Col. Angelo
Perri, James Starnes, Karen Stone, Levola Taylor, Henry
Ward and Preston Winkler.
The
Blue Ribbon Committee is a diverse group of community
leaders who are knowledgeable about the district and
have made a commitment to serve throughout the
multi-year construction process. Like the committee
formed in 1996 to oversee the previous bond referendum,
this committee will meet at least quarterly and serve as
a liaison among the seven school clusters and as
community representatives to the school board. It will
receive administrative briefings, review the facility
construction program and advise the board.
