What s really heartbreaking is that we just had a school board election and the turnout was abysmal. After three years of Devon Horton at the helm during which the board members gave him an extension on his contract those that bothered to vote gave the board another 4 years. This isn’t some far away place like the senate in Washington DC. This is our community schools that are being run into the ground. The good teachers and principals can only tread water so long.

Not only that - the teachers union (DEC) actually *endorsed* the board candidates in the last election that were responsible for creating the very culture that is now resulting in staff leaving! That endorsement 100% tipped the election.
