Yup. Her and Laura were the only ones I thought might make a stink so if they're rolling over, you can forget it. It's a done deal.


good


Thanks for weighing in Jeannie Franklin.


Just a parent who supports the program plan


Let us guess, you are at a W school that has everything and yet, still gets a big upgrade while other schools go without.

Well, at least this was her last meeting as president, right? Guess we'll see how Grace does things now...


It's going to be a hot mess.


+1 Grace will be worse than Julie....


Hopefully some new people will come in and be the majority. Grace is bad news.


How so?

Seemed judicious and professional actually, obviously had her own opinions but ran things correctly.


And to be clear, she seems very dim and has shallow opinions


Who uses the word DIM? She isn't but there is some kind of self interest between the older BOE members and a lot of bullying going on.

I didn't hear them say that. When was that? But if that is true, that is GOOD news.


It's at around 8:25:30 on the video.


Thank you.

I caught it now. I'm glad they're doing that.

I don't think she has any friends on the board.


She’s not there to make friends; she’s there to bring transparency and accountability.


But they need five votes to pass anything. She won't be able to do anything unless she can convince her colleagues.
