Lt. Gov. Burt Jones recently picked state Sen. Clint Dixon, R-Buford, to be one of his appointees to a council tasked with looking at ways to improve literacy rates in Georgia.
Dixon is one of nine people, including legislators, school leaders, teachers and literacy advocates that Jones appointed to the Georgia Council on Literacy. The council was created by Senate Bill 211 earlier this year.
