[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are the Burgundy parent board members nominated? HOS? Other parent board members? [/quote]

All done secretly via nominations by current board members...very inside and based on "who's who" in the community.

Required qualifications:

- affluent
- white (unless your a minority that meets a minimum six figure salary requirement and have a law degree)
- you donate a substantial amount to the school 
- you're somewhat self-absorbed or just purely clueless
- acceptable occupations - lawyer, corporate VP, or some high level government position
- combined with other board members, must not represent the majority of the population of the school and their needs
- most important of all - have had very little hands on experience volunteering at Burgundy and know every little about what their kid does at the school or what goes on with the campus and teachers and students and things that matter

They are a fine group.

Uh oh.  We’ve got some serious hurt feelings in the BFCDS community [/quote]

I’m just tired of seeing this beloved school slandered on here. The teachers and Board and admin are devoted and love the students and the school. They work their tushies off for their students and are doing the best they can. But to insult the Board like this (and I am not on the Board) is absolutely wrong.[/quote]
