Thanks for trying to save our district money. Today our administration was in court, I’d rather have them at The SAU… oh – and they needed a lawyer.
Really? If the SAU just released the records asked they wouldn’t have been in court paying a lawyer with our money. What are they hiding? I personally would like to see the budget for the up coming school year. Not sure why that is a problem?
There was no need for anyone to be in court.
Everybody gets a day out of work at the tax payers expense. There’s a good reason they’re fighting this, transparency means they might have to cut staffing. And heaven forbid we wouldn’t want to spoil anyone’s good time.
People can go to court to support who they wish.
When should we expect you to post the court decisions against you? I assume you’ll link to a document or pdf…
Unemployed people certainly. Those on a public payroll – questionable. I’ll post the decision when I receive it which I have not yet.
