 LaRue County Schools were named one of four “Diamond in the Rough” district in Kentucky.

Congratulations to Superintendent Sam Sanders, staff, teachers and LaRue County School Board for providing excellent student performance with highly efficient and frugal spending per student.

The District strives to get better each day. How fortunate we citizens of LaRue County are to have leaders who are not only smart and capable but they are dedicated and compassionate about the success of each of our students.

 This past weekend I picked up a LaRue County Herald News as well as a Park City Daily News. My interest was to see what auctions were coming up.

I found it interesting that the buyers in the LaRue County area were all being charged a straight 10 percent buyer’s premium on both real estate and personal property purchases at auction.

 My thanks to the mayor for installing bicycle racks on Lincoln Square.

This will allow bicyclists to secure their bikes while visiting or patronizing Hodgenville.

I would like to address the letter to the editor regarding the LaRue County Band of Hawks’ purchase of new uniforms. I was mistaken, when I said they were 16 years old and purchased when 2-years-old from another school. I apologize for giving to the paper and public my misinformation. They are in fact, 14 years old (12 years for us, and two years for a prior school).

Let me continue now to address the issues that were brought up in last week’s letter to the editor.
