PCSSD teachers vote against Personnel policies

It has been my experience that it is really difficult to get rid of unproductive workers when there is a union involved . Near impossible .

I am glad Charlie Wood is up for reelection. I look forward to voting against him. He has caused so many problems for this district and it is time for him to go. What a mess this has become.

The teachers have spoken and yet this mess will continue. The will of the majority was passed, Iam sure that PCSSD will find a way to shoot it down again..So why bother..I say its time to make a clean SWEEP and get rid of everyone on the board. Lets put people in who will do right by the kids and our teachers..

Well it seems like the teachers have spoken loudly today. To have more people vote no than are in the union really shows the distrust for the school board. Also with the rally after this past meeting it seems as though the parents and taxpayers have also spoken loudly that they also do not trust the board. The only other thing left to happen is for Wood and Gilliland to be voted out during the upcoming election. After that I suspect Mr. Clark is going to be real lonely. I would like to hear his spin on this one though. Maybe someday he will decide to dress and act like an adult.

This is nothing but a struggle for power.

I'd like to see Mr. Wood enforce his PPC.

Whoever wrote this article needs some help from those teachers! I guess Fox16 finds it acceptable to post articles with typos. I guess from now on I will read my news elsewhere.
