[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I've seen no evidence of Sandy Evans demeaning anyone, particularly students, even those some of the more vocal keepers (primarily old white people) try to make her seem like the anti-Christ. It really is a classic case of people lashing out when their white privilege is threatened. [/quote]

She certainly did not listen to them.  She had decided this before it ever started.  If you read the FOIA, you would know that.  She stacked the committees and worked behind the backs of the Stuart community.

Not true at all.  She is far more cautious and less partisan than you want to claim.

If she'd decided this "before it ever started," it wouldn't have gone on for two years.

The people who think this change should only have been made if a majority of the community voted in favor have no appreciation for the history of civil rights in this country or understanding of how school boards make decisions.  They change boundaries when they think it's in the best interests of the system as a whole.  They don't have an obligation to poll the community, and usually the process is very similar to that followed here.[/quote]
