The board majority doesn't care what you have to say....

Especially Stitt and Solak.  This was totally apparent at Monday's Open Caucus meeting.  Four speakers and two board members appealed to the rest of the board to revisit the denied Student Transfers and to revote on them. 

Mr. Reesman speaks......

Mr. Crawford speaks......

Mr. Fullerton speaks......

Ms. Sperski speaks........

Choncek and Close speak, Stitt shuts them down......

Now Solak rants.............

People of Armstrong County, especially those in Solak and Stitt's areas, you need to do something.  These two board members DO NOT CARE what you think or want.  They only have their own agenda.  It is now up to you to create CHANGE!  Qualified people need to run against these two for the 2011 election.

Do we have any volunteers?

Stitt and Solak have a problem with cost allocation

Board Directors Stitt and Solak have a problem with Close's request that the $94,000 spent on the architect and future costs be put towards the total of reopening Elderton. Would this be because of the lawsuit holding them and the four others that voted to reopen this school financially responsible for all costs involved with the reopening of Elderton?

Student Transfers Up in Air

On January 18, 2010, Rose Stitt made comments about student transfers.


Then, at the meeting March 16, 2010, she tried to say that she said they would follow board policy (Watch at the 8:07 mark)



She was not present at the meeting last night where the issue ended up in the air. Solak was concerned that the transfers were not categorized. They were already broken down by school, he must want them broken down by grade. The item was pulled until administration can categorize them to his specifications and then the board will vote on them at a "Special Meeting" to be held before the April 19 Open Caucus meeting.

There are three videos of this discussion, please watch all three.
