School Board: Only 43% Committed to Community Engagement

Now that the Annual Meeting is over, a little housekeeping is in order.
2 weeks ago, a certain community resident submitted an e-mail request to all 7 school board members.  If one were to perform an Open Records request for school board members e-mail received on October 3, 2010 said request would be identified.


The following is information from that e-mail:

-------------------------------------------
Sent: October 3, 2010
To:  All school board members
...
I would appreciate a simple acknowledgement that you received this.   Another frequent theme I hear is that several school board members don't respond to e-mail at all.  I'd like to be able to tell them otherwise.
---------------------------------------------

For the record, only 3 school board members responded.  Kudos go to:  Jill Camber-Davidson, Terry Shimek, and John Welke.  These 3 were able to set aside any personal feelings and respond as requested to a member of the public.


Caren Diedrich, Jim McCourt, David Stackhouse, and John Whalen offered no response whatsoever.  Very nice, people.  You've successfully demonstrated how petty and minuscule you really are.  THIS is how you engage the community?  You do NOT get the luxury of picking and choosing to which community members you respond.  You were elected to represent ALL of us.
