PowerPoint Presentation for Larry Bumgarner
This is the PowerPoint presentation given at the interview session for District Six.
Held at the Government Center on Tuesday, Jan, 3rd.
Larry for District Six Power Point
If anyone running would like to post their qualifications, feel free to send them and we will post your information on our site.

The additional information not shown in the presentation is below.
Keep in mind, I did sixth out of a very crowded 13 or 14 candidate race covering all of Charlotte and Mecklenburg.
All the while, others had endorsements from their parties, and three republicans and democrats makes sixth place remarkable.
Therefore I appeal to a wide range of educated voters and this is widespread all over Mecklenburg, and especially from the independent voter, such as I truly am and how we can dream that one day this board will operate.
As a true independent, not owing to any special interests groups, businesses or business support groups.
Too many people run saying they will be honest and vote for the best of all people while they are running. They always say they will available and the like.
The media has also ablactated their responsibility in favor of the next story. Pandering to Elected Officials for future stories has taken over the fourth estate.
Like Cats in a bag, put in there by party politics, we keep fighting each other. While the real problems go unnoticed.

Concerned Tax Payer who is donating my salary back to the needs in the classroom, and will encourage all the others, on the board, to do the same.
Choice Study for CMS
Read this report, it will make the future clear.
Town of Ballantyne, in the works
Good to hear the fine neighbors in the expansive Ballantyne area are seeing the light and will soon have a town.
This new town will be based on one of the fastest growing areas, in density and tax income for Charlotte and Mecklenburg.
Imagine the many needs and special considerations for this area, finally being addressed.
The website www.BallantyneNC.org is now available, and will soon be up with a discussion board, and the information source for the new town charter.
Bumgarner’s application now in for District Six.
Here is his application as he sent it to us and the CMS people.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education
Application for Appointment to the
Board of Education
Name: Larry Bumgarner Contact Number: 704.573.3363
Home Address: _9201 Morgan Glenn Drive, Mint Hill, North Carolina 28227
Mailing Address: Same
Occupation: Retired, Business Owner
Education: Bachelor’s of Business Administration, University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
Place of Employment: Retired
School(s) Children Attend: None
Are you an eligible voter in the Board of Education’s District 6? Yes
Hours per month available for service on the Board of Education: As many hours as necessary to get our system back to working.
Name of Boards/Committees/Task Forces presently serving upon and/or representing CMS
upon: None
Previous involvement in CMS: Volunteer and Proctor, ran for school board to make the necessary changes for our schools to move forward for all students.
Business and Civic Experience: Volunteer in many challenged neighborhoods. Extensive Banking, Commercial Lending and computer experience as well as a business owner.
Areas of Expertise and Interests/Skills: Management and efficiency just to name a bit.
Explain why you are seeking to serve in this appointment: District six has been sold out for so long, that now is the time for someone on the board fighting to get the 4 to 6 thousand dollar, per student, increased to allow us to see the true potential our students can achieve.
We also need to make sure we are not a training ground for new teachers as been the practice for so much under our previous reps.
So much work is needed for all of CMS and a Conservative Voice is needed now more than ever before. Oh and if that voice is not going to be heard as it has been in the past, then we must really have an agenda in play and District Six is a pawn.

Attention: Judith Whittington, Manager of Board Services
Larry Bumgarner is applying for the District Six BOE opening
His announcement is as follows:
Good news as I have been asked by many in District Six to apply for the upcoming BOE seat. These requests came as people analyzed the voting in our District Six and feel my platform would be of benefit to District Six and District Six needs.
First:
District Six will no longer be a training ground for new Teachers.
(While we appreciate CMS allowing the experienced ones to be sent to Urban Schools we need to realize we have unique challenges here in District Six.)
Second:
District Six will also need to be fully funded from here on out to achieve potential the Children of District Six possess.
We will also be fighting for fairness for every Child no matter who they are or if they live in District Six.
Fairness that has to come from a laser like focus on education and no longer being a omnibus for society perceived ills or needs.
Larry Bumgarner for District Six
