[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These hearings are all for show. The BOE does not care what the people think if their thoughts don’t align up to their agenda. they want to read draw boundaries regardless of what impact this has on our communities. If you disagree with them you were labeled as a racist and classist.[/quote]

The BoE is elected. If you don't like the members of the BoE, work to elect other members, or run for office yourself.[/quote]

Just because I disagree with what they’re doing doesn’t mean I have to run for office to try and fix it myself. what a ridiculous thought.[/quote]

OK, then don't. Complain anonymously, to no effect, on DCUM.[/quote]

[b] I have written the board of education expressing my thoughts on this issue.[/b] Why would you assume I have only complained anonymously here? You don’t seem to be a very broad thinker.[/quote]

Why would you do that, if you believe that the BOE does not care what the people think?[/quote]

I also don't think the BOE cares what parents think.  We've testified in front of the board (different issue) and the members were incredibly dismissive.

However, I continue to email, because [b]it's the only way I feel that I can make my tiny voice heard in this gigantic, over-sized school system.[/b]

OT, but this is why smaller school systems are better.  It's easier to parents and teachers to have their voices heard.  [/quote]

But it isn't. If there's someone you think would be good on the school board, encourage them to run. Or consider running for office yourself. Or even becoming the MCCPTA rep for your school.[/quote]
