Body Snatching Land Grab

When first contact was made with me regarding the plight of Timmonsville,Florence County School District Four, I honestly thought they were just crying "wolf." To my surprise everything the residents of the district and town have said has proven to be true.

1. The unlawful cancellation of the election by the South Carolina Department of Education-Superintendent Spearman's Office

2. The desire of Florence One and Florence County to own the land paid for by the residents of Florence Four

3. The need for the student population (black bodies) of Florence Four to sustain Florence One (An enrollment decline of 118 students could cost Florence One Schools an additional $800,000 in state funds).

If Florence One and Spearman had not schemed (the tuition free scheme) to allow students to attend Florence One from Florence Four tuition free, Florence One would have 133 students less. In other words, their attendance would be down by 251 students and not 118, as the reporter states. A loss of nearly 2 million dollars in revenue for Florence One. If the students who reside in Florence Four were attending school in Florence Four, Florence Four would be approximately 1 million dollars in the black. Just food for thought.

Think about this- all the property in Florence Four is paid for (the district owes no one), the body grab of the students from Florence Four to Florence One will give Florence One millions of dollars in revenue, Florence Four's COVID funds will become Florence One's funds, the list goes on of the benefits to Florence One.

Isn't it ironic, that the descendants of American slaves continue to be used to maintain the status quo for the powerful, the wealthy and the elite- the descendants of those who held the American slaves as enslaved people. Is there no shame?
Superintendent Spearman never intended to restore Florence Four Schools to the people of Florence Four or to use the resources of the state, supplied by the people of Timmonsville as well, to keep the high school open. Another interesting fact- Florence County School District Four's millage is lower than Florence County School District One's millage. Should there be a consolidation, the people of Florence Four will suffer a millage increase that will benefit Florence One.

You know the research, the best place for children is in their local schools, if this is indeed about the children.
