[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People hate every superintendent here, so honestly, why should he care what anybody says? People hated Weast. They hated Starr. They hated Smith. They hated McKnight. Now they hate Taylor. The internet wasn't much of a thing yet under Paul Vance but I'm sure the ancestors of DCUM posters were mailing letters about how much they hated him.

At a certain point, if you are never happy with a single thing or a single person and scream about every decision made and are unable to engage with any issue in a way that shows you understand its complexity and aren't just navel-gazing, people in positions of power treat your feedback and behavior with the disdain it deserves. And they burn out. And the replacement candidates you want refuse to come here.

And don't point out that we should have gotten someone who ended up being successful elsewhere. Because if they'd come here, it wouldn't have happened that way.[/quote]

The difference is under Weast we had a strong school system, and it's been downhill ever since.  And yes, I am aware of the changing demographics of the county affecting this, but no one has been able to stop the downward slide of a once great school system.  Taylor's grenade (the new program areas) is going to blow things up, but it won't fix the ailing school system and will make the already bad traffic much, much worse, and cost a whole h@ll of a lot more[/quote]
