Thumbs down from the BCCT
To Morrisville school board President William Hellman, who could use some sensitivity training. Make that a lot of sensitivity training
We couldn’t believe how he opened this week’s school board meeting, which drew over a hundred concerned, if not horrified, elementary school parents. The moms and dads were there in response to a weekend boiler explosion that has shut down the M.R. Reiter Elementary School — perhaps permanently.
Rather than expressing relief that nobody was injured and apologizing for the disruption in the children’s school schedule, Hellman opened the meeting by outlining how much the school board saved by cancelling last year’s planned construction of a new K-12 school. Also removed from the district’s agenda — solely by Hellman — were proposed renovations at Reiter. Or as Hellman calls it, the “rat trap.”
Lovely. No wonder parents are calling for the guy’s head.

An expression like this makes for spicy reporting. I do not wish for Mr. Hellmann's decapitation literally. I wouldn't mind his resignation as President, or from the board entirely, but I wish him and his head good health and good fortune.
Dear Jon,
This is an expression. This is not the French revolution or the Inquisition. Luvya dude, try and lighten up.
John
