“As a 40 plus year resident of the Sherwood School District I am proud to support Matt Thornton in his bid to fill a Board position for Sherwood School Board. Goodness knows why he wishes to dedicate his precious time for a thankless and time sucking position but I am grateful for his willingness to serve this community. I know he will represent the best interests of our youth today, our future generations and mine too.”
