why is it that.........
board members are so quick to follow the administration and don't question their proposals?
board members approved a list of programatic reductions and eliminations without specific details listed?
board members approved school nurses being cut?
in a time of defecit, the board did not at least ask the superintendent to renegotiate the last 2 years of his contract?
in a time of defecit, the board approved long term extensions of the contracts of the CFO & CAO just prior to announcing budget cuts?
adminstrators may join others in paying a small % of their individual health care, but will continue to have 100% of family members insurance fully funded?
board members would agree to balance the budget in the backs of the teachers and students without looking elsewhere to save money?
even if rif notices had to be sent out as a precaution, the boe has not publically charged the admin to go back to the drawing board and come up with cuts
that do not directly impact students/teachers in the classroom?
the majority of the board members are content to follow the adminstration rather than lead them?
the board has not ordered the admin to begin negotiating with the unions?
the board has not held a public hearing on the financial crisis which would allow community members to have questions answered?
members of the community and employees who question and or demand alternative measures are demonized?
we aren't getting the transparency and accountabilitythat we were promised?
why is the tail wagging the dog?
