I greatly regret I that I was not only duped by Mark Hawn but that I encouraged others to vote for him in the last election. While Hawn may have been able to hide his personal agendas and temporarily harness his knee jerk tendancies to react caustically (publicly and privately) to those who oppose his views long enough to get himself elected, these acts and behaviors by an elected official are unacceptable whomever they are. School board members are elected by the community to monitor and provide leadership for school administration in a professional manner - NOT to buddy up to them for their own personal reasons and NOT to take on the role of cheerleader for the adminstration. In two years, I sincerely hope he will be send packing just the same manner that former board members were recently shown the boardroom door by voters who sent a clear message as to the what they will not tolerate.
