We are requesting to change meetings. You are set by law. It used to be on a different night, so everyone can make the meetings. They need your input to save our schools. Simple as that. They can't do it by themselves. You could give them a lot of knowledge. I went downstate but you veterans would make a difference. I would appreciate it if you did that, Mr. Scott.
