School Board
Candidates for Place 2
Roger Feldman
Roger Fejdman, 50, 1304 Glade,
assistant professor of veterinary
pathology at Texas A&M.
Member of city council’s Parks
and Recreation Committee.
Why do you think that you’re
qualified to hold a position in the
school board?
I would not run for a position if I
did not think that I was qualified. I
can name no other specific reasons.
What do you consider to be the
highest priorities of the board?
Space. The board needs room for
expansion. The school system needs
room for growth.
Are you in favor of the April 3rd
bond issue? Do you have any objec
tions to it?
Yes, I am in favor of the bond is
sue. I have no objections to it.
Elizabeth Nangle
Elizabeth Naugle, 37, 1113 Wes-
tover, former A&M Consolidated
elementary school teacher.
Member of PTA program de
velopment.
Why do you think you’re qualified
to hold a position on the school
board?
I have been a elementary teacher
here and in California. Also, I am
well prepared for the job, having at
tended the board meetings for the
past four years. In addition, I am a
member of a visiting team of the
Southern Association of Colleges and
Schools accreditation study.

Would you support another bond
issue if this one fails.
Yes.
Should the curriculum be ex
panded on both the elementary and
secondary levels? What courses
should be included?
Actually, curriculum needs should
be left up to those that are knowledg-
able about this area. I do not con
sider myself qualified. Everyone
knows that there is a need in the area
for vocational training and educa
tion. The schools are not equipped at
the present time to properly train
students vocationally. They need to
expand this program.
What do you consider to be the
highest priorities of the board?
The first priority is to expand phys
ical facilities. In addition, my
priorities include active recruitment
of the best qualified teachers, com
petitive opportunities for all and con
tinuing involvement of faculty and
community in the policy making
role.
In what cases should corporal
punishment be used?
I can site no specific cases.

Is there a drug problem in this
district? If so, what corrective mea
sures should be taken?
If I say there is a drug problem,
that that may be taken that I have
first-hand knowledge of some situa
tions. But, if I say that there is no
problem, then I am showing my ig
norance. The school does not cause
drug problems. I feel that corrective
measures should be taken in the
home. It is not the responsibility of
the schools to handle this.
Are you in favor of the April 3rd
bond election? What objections, if
any, do you have to it?
My one vote does not count any
more than anyone else’s vote. I am
not going to tell anyone else how to
vote. I do suggest that they take time
to visit the schools before they vote.
Would you support another elec
tion if this one fails?
If it fails, my recommendation is to
break it into propositions. We have
to have some kind of bond program; I
think everyone in town realizes this.
Should the curriculum be ex
panded on both the elementary and
secondary levels? What courses
should be included?
Have you been satisfied with the
performance of the current school
board? If not, why?
I have no objections to what the
board has done. Though I might not
agree with all their actions in every
case, I am sure that they would not
agree with everything that I would
do as a board member.
There are plenty of things you
could name. To narrow it down, if
one must, the language and art pro
grams need to be expanded. Basic
reading and writing of English must
be stressed to a greater extent. It is
ridiculous for a high school student
to be lacking in these skills. Our

five interest in the administration of
the school system from having chil
dren in it. Also as a member of the
Board of Equalization I have the
needed knowledge of the revenue
needs of the system and the tax
payers’ ability to pay. I also have ex
perience in areas of civic service.
What do you consider to be the
highest priorities of the board?
Right now fiscal responsibility.
We are in need of fiscal assistance to
improve our vocational facilities,
which are primarily for the students
who are not going to college. We also
need to improve some of our existing
facilities.

The positive angle should be em
phasized. I told the faculty that they
have overused and misused corporal
punishment. I could never write a
policy that completely abolished it,
because they have too much respon
sibility. The discipline needs to be in
accordance with the home.
Is there a drug problem in the
district? If so, what corrective mea
sures should be taken?
Are you in favor of the April 3rd
bond issue? What objections, if any,
do you have to it?
I have taken a position of not sup
porting the bond issue. The reason is
that the voters want the priorities to
be established. We do need fiscal
assistance, but I really feel like some
of the facilities included on the bond
issue are not really what we need
right now.

I am not as well versed in the drug
problem as are others, because my
children are young yet. Counciling is
probably the best thing the schools
can have to offer.
Would you support another elec
tion if this one fails?
Yes, in fact that is why I got into
the race. I feel like there are many
people who see the need for certain
facilities, but place less importance
on some others that are in this pro
gram.
Have you been satisfied with the
performance of the current school
board?
I admire very much the total effort
the present council has put into the
job. And I think we have had some
extremely effective and responsive
individuals on the board.
Should the curriculum be ex
panded on both the elementary and
secondary levels? What courses
should be included?
I feel we need more vocational
courses right now. Our system is
geared to the college bound student,
but many of our students are not
going to attend college and I feel we

district’s Board of Equalization.
Why do you think you’re qualified
to hold a position on the school

I am a registered voter and that is
the only requirement necessary to
run for a positon. I have three chil
dren in the local schools in kinder
garten to the sixth grade. I have a
vested interest in their education
and well-being as well as for the chil
dren of others. With a building con
struction and business background, I
feel that I can serve the board in an
effective manner.
What do you consider to be the
highest priorities of the board?
The bond issues should be the top
priority. Administering the sale of
the bonds as well as getting the best
professionals to handle the job
should also be considered as
priorities.
