Costs have to be cut somewhere. There will be someone opposed to EVERY proposed cut because somebody's pocketbook is going to be affected. Local lawmakers will always come out wanting the cuts to be made in someone else's backyard!
As a retired educator with work toward a doctorate, I have sat in on local school board meetings and I have found Mrs. Thurman very well-equipped to make decisions. She always seems very prepared and to have done any necessary "homework" for the meetings' business. What I have found troubling in the past year, however, are the two Black men on the board who do not understand hardly anything going on. It is actually painful to listen to them try to argue and ask questions that are just so very basic. They are both obviously very much out of their element and it is frustrating to have to constantly halt the flow of the business while every move has to be gone over in great detail before they seem to understand. Surely, the Black community has better people to represent their interests than these two!
