The R&R committee for years has wanted to get the Roanoke Valley schools in Region IV.

They liked their six-team district. They didn't want to be left in a situation where they were in a four- or five-team district where it would be hard to find people to play.

We got the surprise win. This is kind of a surprise.

I just think it would have helped the small schools.

Its clear that as long as this demand continues, then charter schools will continue to thrive,

We need schools to stand on the side of parents who want to teach good nutrition, not on the side of junk-food companies who want to teach bad nutrition.
