Culver Gets His 2%

We grow weary of McCourt's antics 

On Monday, the school board voted to grant District Administrator Tim Culver a 2% pay raise.  The board vote was 6-1, with John Welke the lone "NO" vote.  Welke offered no comments to explain his position, but did he really need to? Welke has steadfastly spoken from the big table that the budget is too much of a hit on a struggling community.  People in Culver's tax bracket are the least in need of such a pay raise.

Our hat's off to Welke for standin' tall in the saddle.  It's tough to be the lone ranger when you have Caren Diedrich gushing over Culver, and Jim McCourt serving as his personal cheerleader.

While on the subject of McCourt....when is someone going to say something about McCourt's class-less body language at the board table.  If anyone says something contrary to McCourt's personal feelings/opinion, he flops, makes noises of disgust, and rolls his eyes.  Does he realize that the cameras are sound sensitive and often pick this up?

McCourt's behavior at meetings?   Check!

Bad form, Jim.
