Monday, February 6th, was a special day for the Village of Goldonna. New School Board Member, Chad Fredieu, held a Town Hall for those wishing to meet the newly elected member for District 7. Accompanying Fredieu were Superintendent Dr. Grant Eloi, School Board President, Billy Benefield, neighboring School Board Member, Steven Harris and Finance Director, Lee Waskom and Mr. Mike Stewart. The entourage met with area residents and spoke about the progress that is continuously being made in the school district. Mr. Fredieu was very excited to greet the crowd and vowed to always be just a phone call away if he is needed.
According to Fredieu, this is the first of many visits with the residents.
