IT IS TRUE.
I was there and heard it myself. This took place after board member Mrs.Rita Mayfield-Jedkins challenged Dr. Batiste on the fiscal appropriateness of selecting a $30,000.00 vehicle on a 6 year lease during the district's budget crisis. Then Batiste forgot to switch on the filter between his brain and his mouth and made that stupid, arrogant and insulting statement.
We need to stop doing things like paying for the administrations cell phones and blackberries, too. Rumor has it that the district even pays for Dr. Batiste's dry cleaning.
Dr. Batiste's paranoia has justified the installation of a lot of security equipment and personnel at LC. His office and personal washroom have been renovated while our children do not even have soap and paper towels in their bathrooms. He's been over-the-top for some time now, and our school board with the exception of one person, again, Rita Mayfield-Jedkins has not challenged him on any of this.
