Joe Hidy has served as president of the Jenks school board for the past year, and said it is important that the relationship between the board and superintendent be positive.
"Even though we do not always agree on every issue, we do agree that we will always do what is best for the students, teachers, staff and the patrons.During my five years on the board, this has been the hallmark of our relationship with the superintendent," he said.
Hidy said if he is re-elected, he will focus on securing operational funding for the school.
"Unfortunately, funding of operational expenses, teacher and staff salaries, insurance, utilities and daily maintenance, is woefully lacking from the state," he said.
