I respond to a news report about the district victimizing me and the possibility of a state takeover of it.
ReplyDeleteI am not a victim. On the contrary, the district, on all levels, is the victim because it gets the facts and law wrong. The last few years proves it.
Moreover, as to getting facts wrong, the district organization on all levels never comprehended the reality of Lakewood and the BOE never comprehended the district organization that it is elected to lead. So both the BOE and the organization are not properly discharging their duties. It's been like that for 20 years.
No one at the Department of Education or Division of Law in the AG office is talking about a state takeover. There is no willingness in Trenton to get back into the business of taking over school districts. It is not going happen in the near future, anywhere, particularly in Lakewood.
Change is coming and it's about time to give the people a voice.

What Midas sdom is going on? I thought everyone was happy now and friends again. Wasn’t the shul expansion approved?
