PISD News

While traveling I let the local 'rag' stack up and over the past weekend I took the time to catch up on the local news. A slew of folks running for local office. It appears that many don't have a clue about the job they seek, and most just have an interest in drawing a check off the taxpayer. Make sure you spend the time to understand the real reason a candidate is seeking office.

Now on to the PISD news...................the PISD school board gives Twi-lite Super a pay raise and extend the contract. Guess the PISD board members failed the basics of grade school in that one should not reward for poor performance. Every PISD board member should be nominated for the highest award in the land...........a cabinet post in the Obama administration!

From reading all the past 'rags' it appears the local crime rate is about to overtake the DFW area.

Board members without actual administrative school experience know very little about the day-to-day operations of a school. They are at the mercy of the superintendent to keep them correctly informed about what is going on in the District.

In our local situation, incompetent Twi-lite Super plays them to make them think that she knows what she is doing.

They are kept in the dark and grown like mushrooms. Their information comes from what Twi-lite wants them to know.

It is all about perception and that perception is extended through the District and into the community.

More employees, parents, and other taxpayers are finding this out.

When will the Board wake up?
