Army Veteran and Local Teacher Announces Run for Arnold City Council

Arnold, MO 63010: On Tuesday, January 17, 2012 Michael W. “Mike” Evans filed to run for Arnold City Council, Ward 3. Evans had previously begun efforts to pursue the State Legislative seat being vacated by Rep. Tim Meadows due to term limits. Evans said “After multiple people posed the question, are you ready to give up teaching, I realized in fact I was not ready to leave the classroom.” This led Evans to instead find a position to fulfill his passion to serve the community while continuing teaching and his ongoing work with special needs students. He looks forward to continuing his work with programs such as the “Fox Olympics” and leading the efforts to form the first of its kind “Unified Volleyball” league for the students in the district.

Evans also stated “Through my service in the military and experience in the classroom, I have always embodied three qualities: dedication, respect and service. This is who I am and what I believe and will bring these qualities with me when I am elected to represent the people of Ward 3.” Evans continued “Providing efficient and fast services are my number one priority for the people of Ward 3. Additionally, I am ready to take a stand and scrutinize wasteful spending, fight for a sensible budget and improve the services that are often hampered by “backroom deals and politics of deception.” The people of Ward 3 and the people of Arnold, including my grandmother, deserve better and I will deliver.”
