This story is gaining traction as the day goes on. Apparently, two Christina board members made a HUGE decision two months ago without notifying the other members of the board. While this HUGE decision is not illegal, unless they put it in writing under authority of the board, which I don’t think they did, and because it is not a quorum, it still shows a complete lack of protocol in a school board. This is something that will affect the district for a LONG time.
It is obvious there are major issues going on, not only with the district, but also it’s Board of Education. One of these board members has been known to cause issues in the past with transparency to other board members. Power is a very addictive thing, and those who abuse it should be held responsible and all actions should be brought to light. Especially when it involves the largest school district in the state.
This is a board of seven, not one, or two, trying to curry favor with elected officials, State Departments, and local business interests. They need to remember what they are there for, to look out for the best interests of the district, which in essence, means the students of the district. None of the two board member’s recent actions seem to be for the betterment of students and the stability of the district. Especially since what they did happened almost two months ago and no one else knew about it…until now…
