CUYAHOGA HEIGHTS,
Ohio – We’d like to take a moment to salute all those rebellious school board
members who insist on asking tough questions and demanding adequate answers,
even when their colleagues and school administrators tell them they’re
overstepping their bounds.
Sometimes these
abrasive board members turn out to be taxpayers’ best friends.
Such is the case
with Dr. Holly Thacker, a member of the Cuyahoga Heights, Ohio school board.
She became suspicious of the
district’s technology director several years ago after an audit revealed that
the district had “excessive expenditures” for technology products and services. Other officials
in the district encouraged her to back off and ignore the situation, according
to Thacker. But she shared her concerns with law enforcement personnel, who
eventually started an investigation and discovered a massive embezzlement
scheme that cost the district $3.4 million…..To Read More…..
My Take - The biggest problem is that 'schools' have stopped being servants of the people and have become sacred cows run by a priesthood that no one can question. We need to start handing out vouchers and return the power to the local people, and out of the hands of 'professional educators', and eliminate the education unions. They have forgotten their place - they need to be informed in the strongest possible terms.....they're hired help! What I would like to know is whether or not there is an on-going investigation regarding those who attempted to thwart Dr. Thacker. And if there is no criminal activity on their part - their part in all of this needs to be made public. Let's name names!
