September 27, 2023 –
The Hopkins-Rains Retired School Personnel, a local chapter of Texas Retired Teachers Association will hold a Candidate Forum on October 11 for candidates who are running in the special election for Texas House District 2.
Citizens in Hopkins, Hunt, and Van Zandt counties are eligible to vote in this election.
The forum is expressly focused on education issues. This is an opportunity for teachers and school personnel, families and business owners, and the public at large to learn more about the candidates and to ask education-related questions to those seeking this position. Each candidate will have the opportunity to speak for three minutes and then questions will follow.
Because the governor has placed such a high priority on education during the legislative session, we felt that focusing on education issues would be very relevant to the citizens in all three counties.
The forum will be held on Wednesday, October 11, from 5:00-6:00 pm at the Sulphur Springs Middle School Cafeteria, 835 Wildcat Way, Sulphur Springs.
