In Nothing but the Truth, who is Dr. Seymour?

Dr. Seymour is the superintendent of the Harrison school district and focused solely on the upcoming school budget election. Though funding is tight, Dr. Seymour grants funds to popular programs like the marching band and turns down requests for continuing teachers’ education. He is so desperate to have the school budget passed by voters he turns Miss Narwin into the bad guy of the incident, to the point of lying about school policy. Though he appears dishonest to readers, Dr. Seymour’s intentions are to provide his district with the most possible funding in order to benefit everyone from administration down to students.
