Where in Pa. schools history has the school board president been installed into a paid position in a manner which appears to circumvent State law ? Wasn't there a qualified and certified person available for this critical position?
The recent history of your town's school board with it's resignations and questionable appointments does not lead to success for dedicated staff or students and unfortunately sends a negative message.
As other districts watch these questionable tactics and yet know that your District needs help, they may be reluctant to become involved until honest , steady progress is displayed.
