McLaren Meeting Today
I missed posting this before but Director McLaren has a community meeting today from 1:15-3:00 pm at the West Seattle Library, 2306 42nd Avenue SW.
The Board continues their superintendent finalist discussion (albeit with one fewer person - details to come when I get an official press release) later this afternoon.
I am hoping that if they cannot find agreement for a number one choice, that they can all agree to their second choice. Meaning, they need to have a united front on this issue and a split vote on a candidate is no way to start that person's tenure.
Better to be united in agreement on the second choice than the hard feelings of a majority vote that 2-3 other Board members did not concur on.

Does anyone think Bill Gates feels he has to compromise? Likewise his minions and politicians/lobbyists? We could wait until we are dead in the ground, Gates money will still be fronting those "education advocacy" fronts.
I cried when I heard that Steven Enoch elected to remove his name. I blame DeBell, Carr and their cocktail claque for that. Guess I will have to continue my guerilla campaign against their crap...

I am very sad.

There are an odd number of board members so that a decision can be made - and when getting "consensus" means we get a 7-0 MGJ clone instead of 4-3 better for all better candidate, what the hell is the point of "consensus"?
Oh yeah, there are 7 board members, instead of 3 or 5, so that when you have a variety of opinion - which is natural in a large city - the 5-2 or 4-3 split votes should represent a LOT of factions, or, at least there is a higher likelihood of many factions being represented, instead of only having to corrupt 2 out of 3.
I'd love to see HMM and Sherry and DeBell on the losing side 4-3 votes for the next 2 years -
it would show that the Billy Ring Kisser faction(s) of elitists and phake 'leaders' was losing to us know no body nobodies.

The Board is then in the position of either posting a 4-3,5-2 vote that everyone can see and make a judgment about OR the Board looks at each other and says can be all agree to the second choice more easily and gets a united vote.
Now that Enoch is gone, it is much harder but there is NO one to blame but HYA and DeBell.
HYA is the executive search consultant company that the Board hired to help them with the search.
