FYI - Here in Fullerton, Ca. the board of trustees is looking to reduce the
staff in the school libraries and at the same time, no at the same board
meeting, they gave the superintendent a raise of $59,000 a year. I can't
fathom how they can justify this increase at the same time looking to
reduce
the resources to our kids.
Superintendent George Giokaris is quoted "We're trying to make the
reductions as far from the classroom as possible" and at the same time
taking a pay increase! This is insane.
