Dear Maggie123,

I agree that Karen Bachus was elected to listen to her constituents but when things got heated the rest of the school committee walked out, Bachus was the only one that stayed. Bill Belichick says "do your job". Bachus did, and in my view that showed a lot more "character and leadership". I think you and I can agree that, at least she out-shined the rest of the school committee.

Thank you for your well wishes on my upcoming election. Here's a promise that you can hold me accountable for. I will, as Mayor, have a sincere involvement in the school department and the school committee. I won't our the taxpayers hand over $160,000,000 to ANY department without accountability. I will be as involved as the law allows. I owe that to the 80,000 taxpayers that I will represent as Mayor. And the students of the Warwick Schools WILL come first. By that I mean "They will have Chromebooks!" I won't quit until they do! Check my website, correntemayorwarwick.com. I have met with and spoken to many parents, students, and school dept. people already.The school department has the money already. They have $3,300,000 in a cash reserve fund that has grown every year for 17 years without any withdrawals. We can take $1,000,000 out of that reserve and buy the Chromebooks today! I have the support of "most" of the teachers and school department members already and "all" of the parents, and Maggie123, I promise you; WE WILL HAVE CHROMEBOOKS!

As far as Mr. Reality indicating that I will have "no say"...that's another topic for another day. He really doesn't know me too well.

Thanks again Maggie123,
