Almost there. Twenty-three more to reach 3,000 YouTube views: School Board member Erica Whitfield.

UPDATE: Erica has broken the 3,000 mark! Only the 3rd time ever on my Lake Worth YouTube channel. To see that video for yourself please scroll down. But first. . .

If the schools in the City of Lake Worth are important to you strongly encourage watching the video below. But first, FYI (since it’s election season AGAIN!), if you’re running for elected office and think an endorsement from your “Paper of Record” is a big trophy along the way. . . think again:

And you may be interested in reading the latest news from the Post’s Andrew Marra, charter schools aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.

Below is a look back to December 2015 when Erica Whitfield gave a presentation to the Lake Worth City Commission. Take special note when Whitfield talks about the data she received from the school district about “Lake Worth” schools. Apparently, the people in charge of collecting data didn’t even know where the City of Lake Worth is; they relied on Zip Codes instead of looking at a map.

Hopefully, under the leadership of Dr. Avossa, that problem has been corrected as well.
