Are you serious...Bringing back Fields, Bounds and Allen???? Way to get morale really low Dr. Fredericsen. People never retire when they get hired with the Board. We need an elected school board to stand up to these clowns. No back bone in any of them except Mrs. Holloway. What a JOKE. How in the world could this 7 (excuse me 6 have to exclude Mrs. Holloway) ALLOW this! They all need to be canned!

So for the first time Mrs. Holloway voted against John Fredericksen and she gets to stay? What a moron! You obviously don't follow the actions of Holloway and the rest of the BOE.

The Board of Education is staffed by the Untouchables.Godfather John has the ultimate power. Thus, sit back, pay your taxes, shut up and read a good book. Don't waste your time trying to understand their decisions. You can't touch the inner circle. They receive most of the tax money and always say we spend it for the students. Enough said.Don't mess with Big John or Little Stephanie.
