The Sheridan Express is inviting letters to the editor regarding whether or not the Worth County School Board should enter into a baseball cooperative agreement with Northeast Nodaway. There are strong opinions in the county on both sides. We have had plenty of people come up to us in recent years asking why Worth County doesn't offer baseball. Worth County is one of four area schools, along with Union Star, Mound City, and Stanberry, which does not offer baseball. Rock Port, a traditional track powerhouse, offered it for the first time this year. On the other hand, in its list of pros and cons on the school website, the school notes that people have donated $100,000 over the years towards the current track. The fear is that a baseball program or cooperative agreement will kill the track and golf programs.
All letters must be signed; we cannot accept anonymous letters. The next Worth County school board meeting is April 21st, so all letters must be received on or before April 19th; the last issue before the board meeting is April 20th. The Sheridan Express reserves the right to edit or reject letters. There is no charge for letters to the editor. Send all submissions to Sheridan Express, 205 North 4th #8, Sheridan, MO 64486, email us at express@grm.net, or message us on Facebook.
