Then they decided that there weren't enough kids and RL> closed the school, consolidating all the kids in an older school in a RL> "central" area. The "school board" is a bad concept to begin with. We can vote for board members, but then we have no say in what they do once elected. And as soon as they link up with the other elitists on the board, they're all just doing what George wants. RL> The new school building was sold and turned into apartments (which is RL> weird). But later it was found that the building was sold for pennies RL> on the dollar to a school board member who then flipped it to another RL> company for a very large profit to make the apartments. We don't have enough people who we can count on to investigate things like this. The school district here is shutting down one of the elementary schools for 2 years to remodel it, and they're going to increase class sizes at other schools while this one is closed. At the next meeting I'm going to ask to see the contractor estimates to find out why they went with this one because 2 years is a long time to trust a contractor and I want to find out why the competitors (assuming there are some) were not chosen. RL> At first, the actions of the school board - and the member involved - was RL> strange. But then I realized that because of the dropping birth rates, RL> schools have excess real estate. And the people on school boards seem RL> to be closet crooks. They're not very smart people, they just know the tricks of the left. We'll figure them out. --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2023/04/30 (Windows/64) * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:23 SSH:22 HTTP:80 (1:342/201) SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700 SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 134 206 275 300 307 317 400 426 SEEN-BY: 229/428 470 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757 SEEN-BY: 342/200 201 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5075/35 PATH: 342/201 200 229/426 |
