Upcoming posts will clear the waters. We will continue to point out how this board does not uphold the oath or code of conduct that they must agree to in order to become members of the school board.<br /><br />d. I will carry out my responsibility, not to administer the schools, but, together with my fellow board members, to see that they are well run. <br />e. I will recognize that authority rests with the board of education and will make no personal promises nor take any private action that may compromise the board.plumwalk2https://www.blogger.com/profile/17454293763847871950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071290088139040652.post-61341294614888176402011-06-07T21:30:33.285-07:002011-06-07T21:30:33.285-07:00The Athletic Director.

What criteria do they use when shuffling folks around? Are they giving us any reasons? Are they giving any thought to the children? Well, I guess I really know the answer to that.plumwalk2https://www.blogger.com/profile/17454293763847871950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071290088139040652.post-60231215217864675152011-06-07T21:22:18.250-07:002011-06-07T21:22:18.250-07:00You are so right...What message are we sending..No...You are so right...What message are we sending..Not only do we change principals and supers.frequently, we do it in the middle of the year...What is our management schme?

Frankly, I am confused by Englewood's Board of Education. They do not seem to have a clear idea of what their job as a board entails. Adults in Englewood are modeling bad habits all over. What kind of board changes the Principal of a failing high school every year? You give a new Superintendent 5 years to make positive changes, but Principals are kicked to the curb like garbage. The Principals work more closely with the children. That makes them more important than a superintendent in my eyes. Yet it seems that they are bullied and moved around at a moments notice. That cannot be good for the educational process. Part of the reason the students are so cavalier with the rules is because the adults are teaching them that it is okay.plumwalk2https://www.blogger.com/profile/17454293763847871950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071290088139040652.post-24853346581679394322011-06-05T09:48:14.409-07:002011-06-05T09:48:14.409-07:00If the Board does not abide by it's OATH...How...If the Board does not abide by it's OATH...How do we expect the Students to follow a Code of Conduct....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
