A $72,000 question hangs over Columbus: are taxpayers getting real value from a lobbyist many council members haven’t heard from in months? We pull apart the claims and expectations behind the city’s contract and ask what legitimate deliverables look like. When public money is on the line, “trust us” doesn’t cut it; proof and transparency do.
Then we pivot to the classroom with Lowndes County Superintendent Dr. Sam Allison for a plain‑spoken tour of school accountability. He explains why proficiency and growth are different—and why growth matters for students who start behind. We dig into the Mississippi Miracle, school choice, vouchers, and potential consolidation. If public dollars follow students, Allison argues, comparable accountability must follow too.
