RE: Agenda for Board of Education meeting For March 24th @ 6pm
Please do not attend, remember that American Idol is on tonight.
Only vote down the budget, do not be a part of the process since it is a waste of time.
Come back tomorrow and ask, "What went on at the meeting?'. That's the best way to keep informed.
Then, complain about the board and know that your complaining here will be heard. Never comment, complain or try to be part of the process in person, that would just be silly.
Besides, if no one gets up and speaks at the meetings, they will go that much faster.
