[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a TJ parent and there are a few things I've asked him about. He knows where to point you to get things done, and he's surprised me a few times with how much insider info he has. He's learned how to work the system without burning bridges, which I think will help him to get things done.

Symone is probably my second favorite, I like her energy -- but she is a bit of a bridge-burner, so I see her as more of a wildcard.

I know the two of them are friends, which is interesting, because they have such different styles.

But right now, that's probably my 1-2.[/quote]

Just go to any of his PTA meetings and you’ll see there is no leadership... at all.[/quote]

What "leadership" do you expect for a middle school PTA?[/quote]

If the PTA president is seeking to lead the district school board, I expect to see that capability and capacity being demonstrated in his meetings.  I want to see his ability to supervise the superintendent on full display. [/quote]

Speaking of meetings only two candidates bothered to show up at tonights board meeting.  Cristina & Symone are here.  Where are the others?[/quote]

Maybe they're at the SUperintendent's focus group meetings.  or the other commitments they've made.  Maybe if Symone didn't go to the SB meetings, she'd have more time to attend her other committee meetings.
I don't think it's important for candidates to show up to the SB meetings.  That is merely SHOW.  It doesn't sway my support or vote.  I want to see what they're getting DONE and participating in, not what they're watching.[/quote]
