I am taking down the latest poll, but have recapped the results below.
Do you think the School Board Directors will answer our questions concerning the renovation?
Yes. They have been open and honest throughout the process. We will get nine responses. 5 (10%)
Yes. We will get one generic response "For the Board." 5 (10%)
No. 40 (80%)
Total votes: 50
Eighty percent of you were correct. I had no response from ANY of the school board directors. I don’t believe they were addressed at the Architect’s Update. To refresh everyone’s memory, here are the questions.
We have questions. We were ignored. We had a petition. We were ignored. Now, we expect it. Eighty percent got it right. How sad.
When Dan Rothschild started his blog, the school board was thrilled to get input. Dr. Steinhauer formed his Key Communicator group, again for input. Now he has a student key communicator group. The Key Communicators started out with these members listed in alphabetical order by first name:
Al Frioni
Andy Rhodes
Betsy Dillon
Bill Cooper
Blaise Larotonda
Corey Polena
Dan Goff
Dave Reese
Deb Smit
Diane Wainwright
Elaine LaBalme
Elizabeth Glantz
Frank Baker
Frank Hines
Gail Sieg
Hugh Beal
Joe Polk
John Schrott
Kim Ressler
Kristen Linfante
Larry Lebowitz
Mary Ellen Schmidt
Rob Gardner
Rob Papke
Ruth Foltz
Sheldon Campbell
Sue Fretterd
Sue Simmons
Tom Moertel
That is quite a list. We have two bloggers, athletic supporters, two running for school board, one running for commissioner along with her campaign manager and her sidekick, one running the courtroom, writers for the Mt. Lebanon Magazine, and only two signed the petition to cap the renovation to $75 million. He sure has his bases covered, doesn’t he?
The school board wants input, but they ignore our emails if we don’t agree with them. If we don’t go with the program, there is retribution. That is not very nice.
