Beth Everitt, her moment of truth, Aiken County Schools

Beth Everitt has promised Aikenians the truth.

A candid, forthright, and honest answer to a legitimate question.

The question is;

As the senior administrative role model for 25,000 sons and daughters in the Aiken County Schools, and as the senior administrative public servant in the Aiken County Schools, will you hold yourself

a. accountable only to the law, and only after a vigorous and expensive litigation funded by taxpayer support of "education", has failed to provide for your exception, or

b. honestly and transparently accountable to a meaningful standard of conduct, by a system over which you have no control, and which will hold you accountable even against your will?


Every generation expects the next generation
to be the first generation
to hold itself honestly accountable
to meaningful standards of conduct.

If we really expect our children to grow into adults
who embrace honor and courage and character,

someone has to show them what it looks like.

In the Aiken County Schools, that "someone"
will be Beth Everitt.


If asked the question, Beth Everitt will stonewall.


Uncertain, but pivotal to the outcome;
the response of the people who call the shots
at the Aiken Standard and the Augusta Chronicle.

If they join the effort to stonewall the question,

Aikenians are pretty much screwed.


Like Albuquerqueans have been screwed by the folks
who call the shots here at the the Journal and the Trib.
