[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10 years ago I attended a session at the Beatley library run by Justin Wilson (who back then was not yet mayor). The session was regarding the need for a new high school and went on to say that things are happening. So don't hold your breathe for any of the school board members to do anything dramatic or worthwhile. It is always a very slow, painful process.

[b]If you want something done, as a parent or community member get some other people together and start pushing for it and being persistent. This is the way I have witnessed change happen.[/b] Basically once there is a lot of complaints the school board or even the city council decides ok this must be an issue that we should pay attention to and will try and do something. They both just kind of wait around for this to happen. [/quote]

After you are done being persistent, make sure you FOIA your name. [/quote]

Who cares? No really who cares? very few if anyone ever will do a FOIA to get records. And if they do, it will be a flash in the pan moment that will then quickly subside when the next scandal or what not happens and the person will still have got what they want.[/quote]

Because it's fun to see how the super, chair and members will mock you, your kids and your concerns. I miss the days when Hutchings, Cindy Anderson etc would just email complaining parents and tell them they were racist.  It was a lot more straightforward. [/quote]
