Tom Bailey unopposed for Collierville school board
Republican Tom Bailey is staying on Collierville’s Board of Education without a contest.
Bailey had no Republican opposition for Position 4 in the August primary and has no opponent in the Nov. 3 municipal election so his campaign is quite easy as he seeks a four-year term. He hopes the lack of opposition is a sign of approval from the community.
“Having kids in two schools in the same system, I bring a perspective that a lot of people don’t have,” he said. “Being a parent and also coming from a non-education background brings a common sense perspective. It’s nice to have a say in both the future of my kids and the kids of Collierville.”
