The school board is still dragging their feet and ignoring the clear desire of this community to honor Jack Long. I am spending my time digging through public records to expose exactly why they are refusing to acknowledge someone who has done more for our students than the entire board combined.

He helped me educate the community around sickle cell trait. Especially the ability to reach the schools where this knowledge is missing.

John "Jack" Long is a Pillar to the community. He selflessly gave tremendously to hundreds. If not thousands of family's throughout his last years of life. Even after death, his legacy lives on and continues to give to more families and His community he loves so dearly.
