[quote=Anonymous]I have been totally unimpressed with Maura. She can't state her position clearly and she doesn't seem to understand how the SB works. I really wanted to like her, but even when asked directly about 4th comprehensive, she hedged. She talks about diversity with no specific action plan.

Monique O'Grady is 150% for Choice schools. Very welll spoken, but clearly stated that Choice schoools are the answer, the "safety valve" (in her words) for Capacity.

Even if you don't like Lander personally, he has actually stood for some important decisions. He was the ONLY SB member to vote AGAINST renewing Murphy's contract! He voted for neighborhood school at Stratford and tried hard to push for the Wilson/HB site to co-locate with more students, such as Montessori or Pre-K. He has been open to listening and has changed his mind when the facts support a better decision. And he shut down the BS accusations by the HB people that moving them to Wilson was racist. He is a strong supporter of neighborhood schools and has said he is in favor of a 4th comprehensive in the mid-term plan. He says we need 1300 seats short-term PLUS a 4th comprehensive.

With who we have on the ballot, if you favor neighborhood schools and a 4th comprehensive, you should vote for James.[/quote]
