A new member was installed and new officers were elected Thursday during a special meeting of the Kingfisher Board of Education. Terry Payne took the oath of office in his first meeting after winning an election earlier this month over incumbent Mike Copeland. After his installation, Dana Golbek was selected as the new president of the board, Jim Perdue was tabbed vice president and Payne will serve as the clerk. Pictured after the reorganization are: seated from left, Perdue, Golbek and Charles Walker; and standing, Carly Franks and Payne. Once those moves were made, the board immediately went into executive session, during which it interviewed three candidates for the district’s open superintendent position. After more than four hours in executive session, the board returned to open session and voted unanimously to hire Taylor Cooper as the new high school girls basketball coach (See story on Page 2) and Michelle Conner as the new middle school/junior high secretary. Board members have called for another special meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 20, and could approve the hire of a new superintendent as early as then. The agenda posted Friday calls for an executive session and includes an action item for “discussion/possible action to employ a superintendent.” [Photo by KHS Photography]

Read moreIt’s springtime in America. In halcyon days, we’d ring in the new season with fresh starts and fragrant flowers.

Read moreWhen I was a sophomore in high school one of the biggest hits on the radio was a pop-rock song called “In The Year 2525.” A duo called Zagar and Evans recorded the song in a studio in the middle of a cow pasture in Odessa, Texas. The song was #1 in America for six weeks and in the 50 years since then I’ve never been able to get the haunting lyrics out of my head. It began, “In the year 2525 if man is still alive and woman can survive.” The song was basically about the environmental carnage we were creating. So now, as teenagers, not only did we have to worry about being drafted to go fight in the jungles of Vietnam, passing an algebra exam, being blown to bits in a nuclear war with Russia, or if our acne would ever clear up, we also had to worry “if man would still be alive or women could survive.”
