WHEELING, WV (AP) — Lawmakers studying children and poverty are planning to hear from the public this week on housing issues. Legislators will be convening interim meetings in Wheeling from Wednesday through Friday.
After hearing from nearly 20 people who support former state
school Superintendent Jorea Marple, the West Virginia Board of Education went
into executive session at around noon
today.
Shortly before the executive session, board President Wade
Linger requested the presence of five Capitol police officers.
Today's board meeting comes after questions of whether the
firing of Marple earlier this month was done in compliance with the state's
open meetings law.
Most of the speakers in support of Marple were educators and
union officials.
