re: EBRP School Board Member Resignation Letter: “Dear all, I quit. Thanks, Katie Kennison"

I don’t know how it came out but I’d imagine it was something like this: 1. Katie comes up with one really smart idea. Presents it to school board and they shite all over it. 2. Katie comes up with one really smart second idea. Presents to school board and they shite all over it. 3. Katie says “I gotta get the frick out of here…”

In order for that scenario to have happened, the superintendent and his staff would have had to first entertain ideas from the elected members. Apparently the board itself is not really getting an opportunity to discuss their ideas. Lots of closed-door meetings between the superintendent and his staff.

The single proposal presented at the contentious board meeting a couple of weeks ago had not been seen be any board member prior to the meeting. Their input is not welcome or valued (it appears).

I can understand why she resigned.
