A Christian rapper and a Christian speaker who conducted a full-blown evangelical worship service, complete with an altar call, at a Chesterfield County Middle School last September, say their mission is to introduce people to Jesus Christ.

The Chesterfield County School Board will be holding community meetings to give the public an opportunity to give input on what characteristics, experiences and professional traits the board should look for in the recruitment, screening and selection process of the new superintendent of schools.

Parents and concerned citizens, still convinced the Chesterfield County School system has done no wrong, were not happy when board members voted 6-3 Thursday afternoon to accept a proposed settlement offered by the American Civil Liberties Union .
