LOUISA, Ky — Lawrence Co. Schools chief Dr. Rob Fletcher publicly thanked Judge/Executive Phillip L. Carter for his assistance with construction projects at the high school campus. Carter said in a school Facebook announcement this week that “schools are essential to our community” and the work he is doing it “for the safety of the kids” in the statement below from Fletcher.
The school system is building a new $1 million girls sports facility and walkways next to Luke Varney, Jr. football stadium where the schools are spending another $1 million on a new turf surface for the field.
Carter is a longtime LC sports supporter once serving as an official of the Quarterback club. The county work on school property has not appeared on a fiscal court agenda.
Thanks Judge
Spend a million dollars plus many more in the past and future on sports; the money should be spent good teachers capable of teaching the borderline illiterate youth the basic life skills they need. I watch these “generation Z” idiots with a smart phone up their ass at all times that couldn’t hold even a basic social conversation with one another, much less anyone else. It makes me sick! So, what if the judge used to be a quarterback, now he’s the damn county executive and his job is to provide for the needs of the needs of the county and city residents. It’s gone way to far people, sports isn’t of any vast importance. Education is! Today’s youth are not getting an education. It is a multifaceted problem, parents’ teachers as well as Carter and Flecther. People run to these ball games as if they played any importance in life. One in a million might make a career in sports; most stand a far better chance with an education!
Charley this is the results of one party rule Republicans you bum
Taxpayers money going for school projects when the roads are in terrible shape… we pay enough school tax they should need road funds
Time to start working on some of the city roads
Who cares about your city roads missy?
Hey KAG, why don’t you’ grab a shovel and some tar, mix in your food stamp receipts and check stubs from your welfare checks with letters from the housing project. Then add some gravel and sand, and fix those potholes yourself? You do know what a shovel is right? And may I add…you’re a BUM!
You continue to impress me Charles ! Spot on.
