LA Y HUFF
For Perkins-Tryon School Board
Larry Huff believes there are three
important factors needed to achieve a
strong school system, they are:
1. An open-minded school board
willing to listen to and uphold
the rights of the Administration,
faculty and staff.
2. The encouragement of parental and
community input and participation
in conjunction with the school
board and administration.
3. The need to listen to the ideas
of the student body and to
support all activities from
educational to extracurricular.
Remember, this is your school
system! !
