Nick Reed PODCAST 03.08.23 - Save Ozark Schools
Hour 2 - Good Wednesday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Shelly Pettit, Major Cazier, and Christina Tonsing join Nick Reed this morning. The three share concerns with the Ozark School district. Major Cazier was a part of the Army JROTC program in Ozark. Mr. Cazier began to experience issues with the district after several cadets received nose piercings in 2021. The district directed Major Cazier to disregard Army regulations and to permit students to wear their nose rings in uniform. After that, multiple situations arose that eventually lead to the suspension of Major Cazier. Shelly Pettit started working in the Ozark School District in 2011. Shelly brought up environmental issues in the middle school building where she taught. She began to be harassed for putting in work orders to have mold removed from the building. Christina Tonsing is a concerned parent who used to volunteer tutor students. After raising concerns with the district, Tonsing says she was ousted and no longer allowed to tutor.
