This is a plea or cry for vacation travel budgets. Its not needed their is plenty of work to be done right in Charlotte no more vacations. It certainly would expand the "influence" that is already present.

The moderator brought this up twice; she insists it's a viable approach to expanding the travel options. It wasn't clear whether any board members agreed, and Joyce Waddell specifically questioned whether that would create an appearance of indebtedness to the sponsors.Ann Doss Helmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03511764376105157616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-92232660740555004622012-09-16T16:57:10.128-04:002012-09-16T16:57:10.128-04:00I think the community would support the teachers/s...I think the community would support the teachers/schools IF downtown could operate like they know what they are doing. Today this is not evident. They waste more on "consultants tied to Broad Foundation" than they spend on helping teachers. In summary they waste money alot of it and are not trusted by the community or CMS employees.

I think not, it comes from our pockets! We have to pay for the registration, hotel, food, travel, and if the school does not have enough funds, for a substitute.<br />Oh, I can attend webinars, but they are scheduled during the school day - some middle schools are on duty until 4:45 pm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020455191286536580.post-16647750160455222342012-09-16T07:56:51.321-04:002012-09-16T07:56:51.321-04:00Wiley , speaking of the outside influence you say ...Wiley , speaking of the outside influence you say the qoute today correct?

Look at your next Board election ballot. Richard , Eric, Rhonda , Joyce , Tate , Morgan/Stinson 6 they are all up and will face some good people.

A majority of the board is influenced by outside interests. Lets start Pat Riley Allen Tate , Charlotte Chamber Bob Morgan , NAACP Kojo numerous others. These knuckle heads are in too deep to say no the the above mentioned folks. (who paid for EES ticket to London)? We still dont know and her dishonesty is maxed out. It starts with the community not trusting her and just rolls downhill. I wont end until Davis,Lemmon,Morgan,Mcalrath,Joyce,Tate get voted out.

There were the every day issues too, but this proved too much to work with. The Board would be better off cutting known BSers than accepting their direction...no matter how well they are generally perceived. There is a difference between performance and ability to BS in a pinch. BSers are lyers who think BSing is just another CMS management tool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
