Steve Walker for Justice of the Peace, Pct. 2, Pl. 1

Justice of the Peace, Pct. 2 candidate Steve Walker says it is time to refocus on the truancy problem confronting our students & redirect them back to the classroom before it gets out of hand and unmanageable.

“We must stop the bleeding and pinpoint the cause, take steps to remedy the situation and ensure our children have a real future. It is time to think outside the box. “That includes creative community service and working more closely with the school districts to ensure that students stay in school.”
