We Need School Trustees

If public education is in fact in trouble, the one terrible sign would be public apathy. Sadly, in some municipalities the indifference is on full display with some school trustee positions being unfilled or uncontested individuals being acclaimed. The system needs input from the public to be at its best.

Secondary issue is that teachers have flexed their political muscles in endorsing candidates who see public education through their lens.  With limited numbers running for the position, teacher influence has skewed the political balance needed on school boards.

Solutions… just listen.
