Hamilton Co. TN is high priority school district —David Mullis @ VBOE 29 August 2011

I didn't catch his name, but he David Mullis talked about his children and said:

All of my children have fourished in the Valdosta School System.
...
The special ed program they have here is second to none.

Then he got to the night's topic:

When I look at these things when people talk about consolidation, I have to ask the question: why do they want to consolidate two school systems? The things that they say sound good. I think everything they say would be agreab What do they mean by them? And I have a little bit of a problem; whenever somebody wants to combine two groups together, it almost looks like they want to control the whole.

And this little bombshell:

It seems like the group that is most pushing this thing is referring to the Tennessee Hamilton County system, which if you read their site, sounds like their statistics are good and everything's working good. Except that there's some data that came out a month ago that says that they are, the first time, the entire district is high priority.
...
That means they had two years of bad results.
