School Board Defaults to Cover-up Mode of Operation!!! –No Prayer!–Kathy Falls MIA–Thurman, Hooker Announce they won’t run for re-election-can do and say what they want to! –Election Year Photo Ops by Bully Glover!! –Women Speakers Ejected by Chairman Bully Glover!!! –Allen Langley Appointed to CCC Board of Trustees! –Danny Blanton Threatened & Silenced-Board does nothing! –No Regard for the Public or Children!! –Report and evaluation by Robert A. Williams

The next item on the agenda was the secret Personnel Report discussed earlier in this article. Danny Blanton voted No and all the rest voted Yea, once again as they always do. Who needs board members who vote “yea” for something they have not read or know anything about. The key to understanding this is if they don’t know about something, they can deny knowing anything about it. But why vote that way? It is stupid, wrong-headed and basically a bald faced lie to the public. I suspect the fact is they do know about it but don’t want to hear it in open session where it is recorded that they know what they are voting for. Is that weird or what?

Then came the Beginning Teacher Support Plan presented by Jennifer Walker. This was discussed earlier in this article.

More administrative stuff and then the sale of surplus equipment. Painting the Activity Bus yellow and using it to support the double route issue at Graham Elementary School was covered in more detail earlier in this article.

Then another closed session was held. After that the meeting was adjourned. Only to start back in the behind closed doors illegal communications between Board Members, the political rumor mongering and false stories about Danny Blanton to apparently pay him back for his vote for Willie Green instead of Allen Langley as he was “ordered” to do.

Folks, it is political season leading up to the elections for the four seats on the CCS School Board. Lies are being spread to muddy up the truth about what is really happening at Cleveland County School as well as the Cleveland Community College. If you want to know the truth, read my articles. If you don’t care for the truth, read the Shelby Star’s press releases.

Right now the School Board Race has four Republican Candidates,: Incumbent Danny Blanton, Kevin Whisnant, Rodney Fitch and Robert Queen against Democrats: Incumbent Bully Glover, Barbara Romich, Guy Suttle and Tommy Clatus Green. Who knows what will happen with Kathy Falls and her petition drive?

Selection in this race should be easy for all voters, The Republican candidates are not connected to CCS at the pocketbook and the Democrat Candidates are.

I recommend Danny Blanton, Kevin Whisnant, Rodney Fitch and Robert Queen for the Cleveland County School Board. See you at the polls on Election Day 2017.
